I'm sorry I didn't follow up on it, but here's what happened: Over on the OD discussion list, there was a call for voting as to whether we had reached the final v2.
My comment is here: https://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/od-discuss/2014-August/000974.html I never added my +1 (despite being perfectly happy with our result). I said instead that we needed to engage the larger list before *any* statement that there was any official anything (especially given the logo issues). Apparently, I was just ignored. I still object to the way people active on the OD list just went and said, "ok, we all discussed and worked out things, we're all happy, now we announce to the world." I was actually there to say, "no, we need to tell the broader OK community about what we've got and get feedback before any announcements otherwise" but I failed to keep bugging people about that, and I guess nobody else shared my concerns enough to reply to my post or otherwise do this the right way.
