La Mouette is asking us the authorization to use the full TDF/LibreOffice logo (with the TDF outline). La Mouette is the NGO representing the Francophone community. My question is: Are they part of this community or are they a different entity consisting of the same people? hmm; it's fair to say that they represent the francophone community. They were the previous OOo french association. As different entity they should *not* use the official logo dedicated to the community and TDF alone. But if the French community creates a pamphlet that is printed and distributed by La Mouette, they have the right to use the full logo. I would like to ask the SC to answer positively to this request. This does not preclude us, however to start this NGOs committee we talked about in 2010 and work with them on collaboration on the local level, as this is only one specific question about a brochure. Hi Charles, if this brochure is positively advertizing TDF/LibreOffice, I see no reason not to endorse it with our official logo - I understand it's presented as kind of a supportive quote from TDF? Even if the brochure advertises TDF/LibreOffice in the most positive light, this doesn't mean that we should allow external entities to behave as if they were the community or TDF. Advertising LibreOffice can be done without any negative impact by using the logo without TDF subline. And for advertising TDF we don't have any rules by now (and no logo different from the LibreOffice logo with subline). So my take in this question would be: Have the brochure created by the French community on their list and let La Mouette distribute it. In this case the brochure is an official resource of the community and therefore allowed to use the logo with subline. Best regards Bernhard PS: If La Mouette is set up as part of the community, this topic would be much easier, but I don't know if their statutes contain such a phrase... I would still grant them the right to use the logo, but as I wrote in my proposal, other conventions/protocols need to be discussed with the NGOs. However, given the work they're helping us with, we should grant them the right to use the logo on the brochure. best, Charles. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to steering-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/steering-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
