I had a look in illustrator today; and only the "first" page is
provided (rather then the second page where the content goes).
There is a background image for both pages in the same directory so I
can start with something; but a lot of what we need is present only in
the two pdfs.

On Wed,
Sounds like we have adobe illustrator and inkscape copies of the flyer. That
is a starting point I could work from; the only difficulty would be font use.
And thanks for the reminder about ODF being a standard :-)

The ODF adoption/marketing committee of OASIS would be ever so annoyed about
your referencing ODF as the OpenOffice.org format as the whole point is that
OpenDocument is not a memory dump of an application converted to some vague
approximation of XML, but a genuine open standard which OpenOffice

You are going to have to ask Tyler for more detail. For my part I have seen
them handed out; raised a couple issues with respect to Font use, made an open
office template for slides and workbooks myself for foss4g and that is all
I know.

Is that under http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/flyer/ or is there

Hei,
what I miss:
- a line on supported platforms
- not sure if applicable to all: supported customization/scipting
languages (if not too geeky)
and, I like it to be a OpenOffice doc, though Adobe Illustrator is fine
for me too.

Hi Cameron:
You should find that an official marketing template is already available as
part of the work the graphics designed has done. My trouble is that I have not
seen it in open office yet.

Arnulf,
I agree that we should only have one marketing template, which will
provide content for a pdf/paper flier, a HTML description for the OSGeo
LiveDVD, and an Open Office Text (odt) format, which can be cut&pasted
into various other uses, like System Integrators' marketing material.

Arnulf,
Yes, I like both of those options.
I think my initial reaction was because it implied that a project was
only supported by a single commercial entity, which isn't healthy. But
I can definitely see the need to meet the use cases you've outlined.

Cameron,
this should be tied directly to the project overviews / info sheets [1]
that are already available on the OSGeo website and "should" be
maintained by the projcets themselves. Tyler has provided really nicely
layouted templates to do just this.
The graphics team assures me I have no understanding of typography either (nor
anything else to do with graphics), but that might be more about my insistence
that they try tools that are not part of Adobe CS*. Particularly after I
suggested the alternatives might be good enough for them to do th
