Hey Andy, Yea basically it's about the project name. I think if the logo doesn't have Apache in it, that's OK (though personally I think it should say have it in there) so long as the first prominent mention on the website (in text I guess) has "Apache" and "Mesos" together to form "Apache Mesos".
I just replied to Dave, I think if we say "Getting started with Apache Mesos" in big text, combined with Apache Software Foundation > Apache Mesos, in the breadcrumbs we're good.
