Something like this perhaps?

Strictly from a branding point of view, we should not dilute the
brand.
OSGeo needs to set the branding standards, and then all project
should follow that standard. If the standard is a compass, then
OSGeo Live should not change the center to be a heart, UNLESS the
standard says the all projects should adopt a unique center piece in
the middle of the compass for the respective projects. Otherwise
this dilutes the brand.

Re new OSGeo-Live Logo:
* I feel strongly that the OSGeo-Live logo should be derived
from the OSGeo logo, but not be the same as the OSGeo logo.
* I feel it is important to say we are proud of our OSGeo roots
and associations, but also acknowledge and celebrate our added
uniqueness. We are a family within a larger community.
* I suspect you will find all OSGeo sub-projects feel similarly,
and hence will want sub-brands.
* Hence I think [1] (proposal logo with heart) is better than
[2].
* However, I think we can do better than [1]. With our shot
timelines I would reluctantly accept [1] for next release, with
intent to revisit later.
I'd be interested to see if Brian Hamlin puts something
together. He has an artistic flair and I've really liked
artwork he has created for prior OSGeo-Live releases.
Re OSGeo Incubation:
* I've answered on the incubation list, but in short, I suggest
we revisit the question after OSGeo-Live 11.0 release.

Okay reporting back with ... a conversation. The graphics
designer is now off on holiday (actually honeymoon) but we
got a lot done in the last two weeks since I have spoken
with you. The priority was obviously the website and stuff
for printing.
For my last updated I tried to adapt the new branding
elements and keep the heart shape:

I did however manage to force the issue of subbrands; but
doing up printing materials including the geoforall and
osgeo-live logo. You can check the meeting notes for the
result ....
o Review of OSGeo Live branding history

Discussion on relationship between projects and
osgeo
+
We have an answer about “Live” - it is a live
demonstration of software, rather than a static
demo.
+
We have a strong relationship and we could ask
OSGeo Live
to use the OSGeo logo unaltered, however that
does not
answer the general problem (of how to work with
sub brands)
You may remember me asking what 'live" was meaning for osgeo
live, judging from early art assets in github (the svn
banner had hidden early prototypes of the logo). The
thinking was "pulse" with hearts and heart rate monitors
tracking which projects were actually alive. The other
meaning I could come up with was a live demo, rather than a
static demo.
Both Marc (strong marketing background) and the graphics
designer (really proud of the new logo and visuals). They
wanted to ask if OSGeo Live would be willing to use the
following:
[2]
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM>
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM>>
This is an interesting tradeoff:
- because no other software project is being asked to update
their logo (only include an OSGeo project logo on their
website).
- the tight relationship with OSGeo foundation is causing
this request, so a mark at how central osgeo-live is to our
foundation
- I will support whatever direction the project chooses to
take (hesitate to offer my own opinion since I can see
advantages both ways).
I have also had this question come up recently - why is
OSGeo-Live not an OSGeo project. The answer is simply that
you have not asked and acquired a mentor.
- You are of course welcome to apply as an OSGeo Community
project (and get approval right away - summer voting habits
permitting)
- Entering incubation can also be done, but we need to line
up a mentor first.

Wanted to provide a small update, I got some public and
private
feedback on the branding which I took into this weeks
meeting.
Many of the direct "osgeo foundation" activities just
use the
normal OSGeo Mark, we have the examples of "OSGeo
Project", "OSGeo
Community" as used by projects ready to go.
A few sub brands (GeoForAll, OSGeo Live, local
chapters) are
expected to work with the design elements and create
their own
mark. We have asked the designer to use OSGeo Live as
an example,
this was the best I could do without stepping out of
contract :)
I checked the EOI and we have not paid for a sphinx
theme. We will
have to wait for the website to take shape and adapt
later in the
year. Colors, logos and fonts we can do earlier.
