OSGeo Branding Update Logos

[jodygarnett]

I provided these more than a week ago in SVG form, converted to PNG now and added as a pull request.

This pull request also:

• updates the graduation status on a few projects (PostGIS, marble, gvSig, GeoServer)
• changes from incubation to community logo use

[jodygarnett]

Please note this pull request allows edits from maintainers - @camerons there should be no need to make your own pull request if you have edits you wish to make no this one.

Users with write access to OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc can add new commits to your logos branch

Thank you @jodygarnett
This looks really nice!

I will open a ticket on trac and link this PR.

I might be nostalgic, but I prefer the old OSGeo Logo, and the blue of our adaption to OSGeo-Live. But I think it valuable to be consistent with OSGeo branding, so I'm in favour of accepting proposed changes for this release. (If we have time to be creative and change the logo later, we can).
+1 from me to accept the new logos.

[kalxas]

+1 from me too.
The horizontal banner is much better now, thanks @jodygarnett

[jodygarnett]

We can try the blue, as a sub brand it may be fun to have three colours to work with, need someone good it colour theory to choose a complementary shade.

[jj0hns0n]

+1, but concur we should continue to explore the boundaries of what we can do with this logo/system and still be 'on brand'

[kalxas]

I am not sure we need to keep the Blue.
I also know that @darkblue-b is doing some tests with the logo

[jodygarnett]

That is perfect @darkblue-b is already authority on shades of blue (bada ping...)

[jodygarnett]

Note the "images/logos/OSGeo_compass_with_text_square.png" logo is against the style guide, I only made it because I wanted to have an unchanged size for our template. If @darkblue-b is experimenting perhaps we could find where that is used and change to the normal logo.

So what do we need to have happen to merge this pull request?

[kalxas]

Since there hasn't been any more feedback here, I will bring this to the mailing list for final voting.

Hi Jodi,
I don't have write access, so I can not change anything so I will comment:
I took the liberty of making a test merge in my fork, and ran these commands

grep OSGeo_community -A 5 $(git ls-files) | more
grep OSGeo_project -A 5 $(git ls-files) | more

I will focus this comment on the second command about OSGeo_project:
The majority look like this:

ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst:.. image:: /images/logos/OSGeo_project.png
ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst-  :scale: 100
ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst-  :alt: Projecte OSGeo
ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst-  :align: right
ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst-  :target: http://www.osgeo.org
ca/overview/deegree_overview.rst-

Some have

• :alt: OSGeo Project in Incubation
• :target: http://www.osgeo.org/incubator/process/principles.html
• some have both like this one:

ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst:.. image:: /images/logos/OSGeo_project.png
ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst-  :scale: 100 %
ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst-  :alt: OSGeo Project in Incubation
ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst-  :align: right
ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst-  :target: http://www.osgeo.org/incubator/process/principles.html
ca/overview/geomoose_overview.rst-

Some I don't understand the alt:

el/overview/ossim_overview.rst:.. image:: /images/logos/OSGeo_project.png
el/overview/ossim_overview.rst-  :scale: 100 %
el/overview/ossim_overview.rst-  :alt: Λογισμικό ενσωματωμένο στο OSGeo

el/overview/postgis_overview.rst-  :align: right
el/overview/postgis_overview.rst-  :target: http://www.osgeo.org/incubator/process/principles.html
el/overview/postgis_overview.rst-

but to be in the safe side, it can be written in English, and later a translator can translate

If you tell me what to do, I can fix and make a PR to your fork/logos branch (that will include the latest changes on master) and you can review the changes, and merge when satisfied (that will update this PR).

[kalxas]

@cvvergara I will merge now and we can fix issues in a new PR

[cvvergara]

@kalxas
ok

[jodygarnett]

Excellent my first contribution in years breaks the build, I feel like a worthwhile human being :)

(more seriously thanks everyone, it will be great to have the new branding, and the update project relationships, in the mix).

[cvvergara]

@jodygarnett
does not break the build

[kalxas]

Actually the test server is still at alpha, not sure if it was this PR :)

History of VERSION.txt
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/commits/master/VERSION.txt

[kalxas]

Back in the subversion days, install scripts and docs were all in one repo.
The VERSION file exists in both git repositories now, but the actual release process is based on this one:
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/commits/master/VERSION.txt

[cvvergara]

ah, then that file need be "automatically moved" to the docs repo

[kalxas]

@cvvergara actually no.
Since we build the docs as a debian package, the docs become "final" many days before we tag OSGeo-Live as final. So the split is intentional and should stay like that.
