The keystone project was one of the first to have a logo and I'm more than happy to give it up for the sake of a consistent message across all OpenStack projects.
I think it's fine if ironic and tripleo want to stick with their current animals (luckily they are using logos that meet the new criteria proposed by the foundation), but I don't think it's unreasonable if the foundation proposes a re-design of existing logos that is more consistent with the rest of the new ones. The logos we use today are too different from each other, i don't think anyone would disagree with that. If each project goes off and does their own thing it comes off as inconsistent. stevemar On Mon, Jul 11, 2016 at 11:33 AM, Steven Hardy <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mon, Jul 11, 2016 at 08:00:29AM -0700, Heidi Joy Tretheway wrote: > > The Foundation would like to help promote OpenStack projects in the > big > > tent with branding and marketing services.
