Sure. It's only that I have been involved in enough & time-consuming isolated-slogan activities in free software projects that ended up in nothing. Nothing. One of them in the GNOME project with you Dave not far from it, btw. :) Following the example of GNOME, whenever there was a new release a big banner was needed, and usually it came with a slogan. In such context finding the slogan took a week or two, and the slogan discussion was embedded with the banner discussion and the release notes discussion. Said all this, Texrat & anybody else: feel free. -- Quim _______________________________________________ MeeGo-community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-community
