Re: [art] OOoCon09 impress templates.
Hi Bernhard, I extended the information in the template and mentioned the license in the meta data at a place where every author will have to read it. The new version is uploaded to the wiki: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/File:Ooocon09_presentation_template.otp Do you think this is appropriate? thanks, to me this looks okay!

I'd love to see a display at OOoCon with proposals for a new OOo logo... but I think we may have left it a little late for Orvieto? As far as OOoCon 2009 is concerned, the Conference team have already designed their logo (as is their 'right' as organisers), and Bernard has incorporated it into an excellent template. Encouraging people to use a single template helps the OOoCon branding. > Conf is the place for breaking new ideas after all, let's extend that to > the > artwork. Agreed. It would be great to launch a "LOOok for a LOOogo" there!

Their marketing people say we are still locked back with Office 97 and we reinforce that attitude in peoples minds by continually recycling our old logo. And on top of that, from a Philosophical POV we use a Non-Free font. How about this for an Idea. We, the Art Project, produce a whole pile of alternative OOo Logos, then the speakers can choose the ones they individually like for their presentations. Who knows the people at Conf might see one really cool one and say: "We should have that as our Logo."

Re: [art] OOoCon09 impress templates.
Hi Bernhard, As I don't know about the license of the OOoCon09 logo (I assume proprietary like the OOo logo it contains), licensing is a bit unclear as every time the OOo logo is involved. Officially every presenter has to ask for approval at the logo list and if anybody wants to re-use their presentation, (s)he has to ask too. I don't think this makes much sense. I see that there are open issues regarding the license, but it's very important to me that projects take no harm due to the planned trademark license. I propose that as long as the logo is not modified by any means (except minor changes like size), it can be used for the purpose of OOoCon presentations, just like we had it all the years before. This includes generating templates and presentations as well as showing and distributing them. I think that we need no information about the trademark status inside the documents, so we can just go on as the last years. How does that sound to you?
