Hi Adonay,

First all a big thanks for stepping in and help out on this.

For those that want to follow, the long discussions about this are
happening on the #replicant IRC channel between me (dllud) and Adonay
(adfeno).

After looking at the sketch bellow I had the following main comments:
- I instantly liked the phone mockup, which we can also re-use for the
flyers.
- I didn't like the arrangement. Doesn't feel/look ok, there's too much
white space, not very well distributed.
- I prefer a link instead of the QR code, mostly due to simplicity.
Replicant's URL is plain easy: replicant.us A QR code, besides making
our life harder in terms of space arrangement, comes with usability and
privacy concerns compared to the simple replicant.us URL.

Afterwards we starting deconstructing the entire banner idea. On the
bottom line, what sets Replicant apart from all other Android distros is
neither Privacy or Security: it is Freedom.
We agreed that the main idea we want to convey is:
- "Hi there, dear visitor to this conference. Look here! We build an
Android distro with 100% free software. Come closer and check it running
on these phone we have on the table. Wanna try?"

Following that line, I got into minimalism mode and prepared the version
that I am attaching.

Comments welcomed.

Regards,
David
