Florian You should perhaps specify if the TDF subline should be used or not. Perhaps the following could work?: == For the use of the TDF subline, there should be a process where a group applies for its official recognized use and gets permission from TDF. For the use without a subline, then any NL group could make use of it, recognizing the fact that its use does not in any way infer support from the TDF officially. == This would essentially be the same rules as the use of the LibreOffice logo with or without subline. If this were the case, then we could post the logo + NL panel logo to the wiki for groups to make use of it, if they wish.

We had it in Paris at the conference so we know the general lines and criteria, but I would only and strictly reserve the subline for specific cases and with a written agreement between TDF and the said NGO. Best, Charles. Hi Charles, That is what I was hoping. If there is an agreed policy on this, then it should be inserted into the wiki page so that everyone is under the same understanding.

What do others think? I didn't see many replies yet, and since the trademark policy should serve the protection of the brand, and at the same time support the community efforts, I'd like to hear some thoughts on that. :-) Thanks, Florian I personally think the concept is a good idea. It would help in fostering a sense of community attachment but more at the local level. It would also signal the fact that there is an active local community with feet on the ground who are there to help -- local conferences etc. But I also believe that this would set a precedent with modifying the trademarked logo.

Cheers, Marc Yes, I know this was specific for their region, BUT, it would still be nice to have a mascot image that the regional icons could be a part of. We need to get one international mascot that can also be modified like the icon. Having a larger mascot for a shirt image that is wearing a shirt himself/herself that has a regional icon on it. That would make it an international image with a regional flair as well. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
