Subject: Calling graphic designers
Apache Wookie (Incubating) is a Java server application that allows you
to upload and deploy widgets for your applications. Wookie is based on
the W3C Widgets specification, but widgets can also be included that use
extended APIs such as Google Wave Gadgets and OpenSocial [1]. As part of
the migration of Wookie into the Apache Incubator we are looking for a
new logo which incorporates the Apache feather [2].
Maybe I'm not the right person to ask, as my graphical skills are extremely
limited, but why is it required to incorporate the Apache feather? I can't
think of any other Apache projects that have the feather in their logo?
It's not required, but stylistically it would be good. I agree that it's
not required though - poor wording that nobody picked up in the original
issue. Thanks for bringing it up here, at least people coming to the
thread will see this.
With respect to other projects using the feather you should look around
a bit more, around 50% include the feather in some way (often in fairly
subtle ways though).
