 Hello,

 I have a friend that runs a store with clothes and accessories, and he
 told be if we could make an online store and sell t-shirts (and other
 things) with open source
 logos on them.

 As I have seen many stores to do this, my question is: Do you need any
 rights to sell for example a t-shirt with Gnome logo on it?
 Obviously, that applies for more logos from other organizations, but I am
 staring from Gnome.


Hi Alex,

Yes, you do need permission to use the GNOME logo.  You can probably mail
the board for permission to do so.

 Thank you

GNOME Commit digest on Planet GNOME

2012-08-01 Thread Andreas Nilsson

Hi!
Discussion about this initially started on foundation-list [1], but it 
probably makes more sense to bring it over to this list.
In short; Planet GNOME is currently only for Humans, not robots, ie. A 
blog needs to be strongly tied to a individual in order to be added. 
Project news etc. go on news.gnome.org
Johannes brought up the idea of adding commit-digest to Planet as a 
exception to this rule, as shows important data on how we're doing as a 
project.
I think that would be ok. We could do something creative to it in order 
to make it stand out among the other blogs. Color being an easy solution 
that comes to mind. Another idea would to do something with all the 
heads of the release team. I'm open for any ideas.
I also think this should be the only single exception with regards to 
the planet. Planet Mozilla currently has this issue (and they are 
working on it) that you sometimes have to scroll pages and pages before 
you actually find a blog post from a clearly identifiable, single person.

I totally agree with Andreas. This will be the only exception. I agree that a 
separate
presentation is needed to indicate is not a personal blog. I think both a 
slighly
different color and something different from a hackergotchi will make it 
clear.  Instead
of a hackergotchi, a picture of the release team or a group picture from GUADEC 
can
be used.

I also wonder as well if commit digest is the appropiate name or if we need 
something
different for this behind the scene informative blog.

Cheers,

I never read news.gnome.org anymore; due to not being linked from
planet.gnome.org. I have no interest in RSS readers.

 Johannes brought up the idea of adding commit-digest to Planet as a
 exception to this rule, as shows important data on how we're doing

I think this should be put on www.gnome.org in a 'behind the scenes'
section. With the current design, I wonder how many people are able to
find something like Planet GNOME.
