In addition to coming up with a catch phrase or a very short definition about what OpenSolaris is about, we also need a mascot/logo - the current splattering of source code with the "open(2)" is cute from a geek perspective but it is hardly the kind of thing you could expect people to carry on boxes or cds as a way of saying "we're OpenSolaris".
It looks like this has been discussed in the past but nothing has gone anywhere. What I'd like to see the OGB consider doing is: - decide if we'll have a mascot or logo (or both) - come up with a prize (monetary or otherwise) - decide on some dates for when to run the competition - announce opening of a competition - collect submissions and have a vote to decide the best - require winner to hand over copyright to OpenSolaris - undertake the above with a clear understanding that it is possible that no entries may "win" Lastly, I don't think that this course of action should be in any way dependent on any other activity.
