| 07:36:00 | darkblue_B: | hmm I missed the marketing mtg last night.. but all I wanted to say was.. I want to put up a poster at GIS Day next week at UC Berkeley.. should include the Cal mailing list address |
| 07:36:25 | darkblue_B: | Cal => California OSGeo mailing list |

| 07:39:27 | jmckenna: | i'm also man-ing an OSGeo booth for GIS Day at Carleton University in Ottawa Canada next week |
| 08:00:11 | seven: | Board meeting time |
| 08:00:30 | FrankW: | yikes.... on in a sec... |
| 08:01:18 | seven: | Can some one send me the passcode please. |
| 08:01:35 | seven: | Tyler sent it to me but it seems to be wrong?! |
| 08:01:50 | markusN: | to me too |
| 08:01:53 | markusN: | passcode invalid |
| 08:01:54 | FrankW: | I'm getting invalid on our usual code too. |
| 08:01:57 | ajolma: | ..is invalid.. |
| 08:02:03 | seven: | Hmmm. |
| 08:02:06 | seven: | Now what? |
| 08:02:20 | seven: | TylerM said that he would probably not be able to make it. |
| 08:02:27 | FrankW: | Oh dear. |
| 08:02:37 | seven: | I am on Skype. Should we try that. |
| 08:02:43 | : | * seven knows that it is no good for Frank |
| 08:02:51 | markusN: | I just skipped "aperitivo" ... |
| 08:03:42 | seven: | We can't do it here on IRC, can we? |
| 08:03:47 | seven: | Because of voice, etc. |
| 08:03:54 | FrankW: | It isn't a legally constituted meeting if we do it by IRC. |
| 08:04:25 | FrankW: | We could still discuss the items, but not pass final motions. |
| 08:04:57 | : | * seven adds an agenda item: Operate telephone conference facility operated by OSGeo... |
| 08:05:37 | seven: | We have several Local Chapters who are already waiting since last week. :-( |
| 08:06:11 | mlechner: | ..and who are watching you right now ;- ) |
| 08:06:15 | seven: | Anyone with a good idea? |
| 08:06:49 | ajolma: | Why isn't skype good for Frank? |
| 08:07:11 | ajolma: | would skype be a legal meeting? |
| 08:07:17 | seven: | Too much lag. |
| 08:07:31 | seven: | ajolma: Good question. :- ) |
| 08:07:37 | ajolma: | in Frank? nooo |
| 08:07:50 | seven: | I guess it passes as voice communication alright |
| 08:08:18 | seven: | Lets sort out who is here first. |
| 08:08:22 | FrankW: | If we have quorum without me, I can just follow in IRC. |
| 08:08:27 | seven: | Arnulf, FrankW, Ari, Markus |
| 08:08:36 | seven: | Thats all so far. No quorum. |
| 08:09:02 | : | * seven writes an email to Paul and Hobu |
| 08:09:12 | ajolma: | I'm installing skype |
| 08:09:14 | FrankW: | .. and bob ... |
| 08:10:02 | seven: | Yes. |
| 08:10:18 | seven: | Please could you all hold on for 15 minutes? |
| 08:10:32 | FrankW: | I see I have skype, so I can connect - I'll just have somewhat poor ability to communicate. |
| 08:10:34 | seven: | We will try again at xx:30 if that is fine. |
| 08:10:46 | ajolma: | ok |
| 08:10:51 | FrankW: | ok |
| 08:11:44 | markusN: | ok |
| 08:12:53 | seven: | How do we join in a group with Skype? Anybody with experience? |
| 08:12:59 | markusN: | I have |
| 08:13:08 | markusN: | one just invites the others |
| 08:13:14 | seven: | I gues someone mut invite us. My ID is arnulf_christl |
| 08:13:34 | ominoverde: | seven: do a first call and then drag people in |
| 08:14:35 | ajolma: | my id is ari_jolma but I need a mike : ) |
| 08:15:28 | seven: | You have 13 minutes. :- ) |
| 08:16:00 | seven: | markusN: I sent an email to Bob, Paul, Howard and the board list with the ids I have so far. |
| 08:17:57 | seven: | FrankW you do sound muffled. :- ) |
| 08:18:24 | FrankW: | :- ) |
| 08:18:37 | FrankW: | I will lose my normal fast talking advantage. :- ) |
| 08:18:51 | seven: | I guess Jo is Skype resitant... |
| 08:19:21 | markusN: | currently Arnulf, Frank, Ari and me are in the cal |
| 08:21:42 | seven: | Can someone call Paul or Howard using land line telphone? |
| 08:21:46 | : | * seven does not have a number |
| 08:21:56 | FrankW: | I'll try Paul. |
| 08:23:57 | FrankW: | no answer from paul |
| 08:24:41 | seven: | I can hear Markus |
| 08:24:46 | seven: | but he cannot her me. |
| 08:24:48 | seven: | Cool. |
| 08:24:53 | seven: | Technology is great! |
| 08:25:13 | seven: | Ah but we just talked |
| 08:25:13 | FrankW: | I have no contact info for howard. |
| 08:25:34 | : | * jmckenna sometimes u get what u pay for : ) |
| 08:25:40 | seven: | You never hear me here? |
| 08:25:44 | seven: | Ah, OK |
| 08:26:02 | seven: | Thats why they ignored me on the OGC meeting yesterday... |
| 08:26:03 | ajolma: | I can't hear you. |
| 08:26:15 | markusN: | try the test call |
| 08:26:25 | seven: | But it work the day before. |
| 08:27:54 | markusN: | there are also the solutions where the system calls you on land line |
| 08:30:33 | seven: | There is Paul. |
| 08:32:16 | markusN: | anybody speaking in the call? silence.... |
| 08:32:17 | seven: | Markus, can you please invite Paul. |
| 08:32:23 | seven: | I am about to get online now. |
| 08:32:33 | markusN: | Paul needs to accept me first |
| 08:32:55 | markusN: | ok |
| 08:33:07 | markusN: | works with Paul |
| 08:33:26 | seven: | markusN: |
| 08:33:40 | seven: | Can you invite me again. I switched boxes. |
| 08:33:45 | markusN: | done |
| 08:34:09 | markusN: | yes |
| 08:34:16 | markusN: | we can here you |
| 08:34:16 | FrankW: | yippee! |
| 08:34:21 | markusN: | sure!! |
| 08:34:45 | markusN: | seven: loudspeaker up? |
| 08:34:46 | FrankW: | yes, it does sound pretty bad. |
| 08:36:31 | markusN: | I am willing to pay for a land line conf, using www.jajah.com |
| 08:36:39 | markusN: | this sucks what we try right now |
| 08:38:03 | seven: | I have not the $%/& idea what is wrong. It worked for the past year every day. |
| 08:38:15 | seven: | Can we use the land line using jajah.com? |
| 08:38:26 | seven: | We have quorum. |
| 08:38:30 | markusN: | gimme you land line numbers, in privat chat as you like |
| 08:38:35 | seven: | Lets not waste the chance. |
| 08:38:40 | markusN: | I have just inserted €€ into the system |
| 08:38:52 | FrankW: | I would suggest we proceed to pass motions on the fairly straight forward stuff. |
| 08:38:55 | FrankW: | And perhaps have some discussion afterward in IRC. |
| 08:38:55 | FrankW: | Rather than moving to a new venue. |
| 08:39:19 | seven: | FrankW: Good idea. |
| 08:39:33 | seven: | Please read the three Local Chapter applications as per agenda. |
| 08:39:55 | seven: | From my pov they are alright and we could just move, second and vote on them |
| 08:40:21 | FrankW: | I think we should select a secretary and pass the last minutes first. |
| 08:40:34 | seven: | Good. |
| 08:40:36 | FrankW: | I would be willing to secratary, lacking Tyler. |
| 08:41:59 | seven: | Excellent, thank you. |
| 08:42:25 | FrankW: | seven: Can you rejoin the conf. call? Hopefully you are audible enough to vote on motions. |
| 08:42:36 | markusN: | added |
| 08:42:58 | pramsey: | we can hear you |

| 08:52:48 | seven: | 3rd quarter balance sheet approved. |
| 08:52:50 | ominoverde: | yours seems bigger with all this international calls! |
| 08:53:00 | jsanz: | gracias markusN! |
| 08:55:33 | FrankW: | doh ... I seem to have been dropped. |
| 08:56:15 | markusN: | back in |
| 08:56:32 | darkblue_B: | sub-chapters list updated? maybe that would be a good thing ofr a poster |
| 08:56:58 | darkblue_B: | land - language - layers... OSGeo! |
| 08:58:43 | seven: | Last agenda topic: OSGeo email accounts |
| 08:59:51 | : | * ominoverde wants an email account too! |
| 09:06:08 | markusN: | FrankW, seven, ajolma: are you available for a quick test of the landline system? |
| 09:06:18 | seven: | Done. |
| 09:06:18 | seven: | Sure. |
| 09:06:21 | ajolma: | I'm |
| 09:06:29 | FrankW: | I'm available, yes. |
| 09:06:55 | markusN: | ok, calling |
| 09:06:55 | FrankW: | I must say, skype worked better for me than it used to before I realligned my sat. dish. But still very laggy and drop out from time to time. |
| 09:07:33 | markusN: | your phones should call now |
| 09:08:30 | seven: | Wroks. |
| 09:08:36 | seven: | Works. |
| 09:08:43 | markusN: | yep |
| 09:09:07 | seven: | Cool, we now even have a fallback system. |
| 09:09:14 | markusN: | I just lack a few landline numbers yet - ok as backup for the next time |
| 09:09:50 | markusN: | ok, thanks bye |
| 09:09:59 | : | * seven guesses that markusN will add it to: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Conference_Call |
| 09:10:00 | sigq: | Title: Conference Call - OSGeo Wiki ( at wiki.osgeo.org ) |
| 09:11:07 | seven: | FrankW: Can you pls add the minutes soon so that we can spread the good news? |
| 09:11:34 | seven: | ominoverde: OSGeo officers, chairs and VIPs can get an OSGeo email reflector. |
| 09:12:03 | : | * ominoverde asking himself about who he is... |
| 09:12:06 | seven: | Add a ticket with SAC. As new Local Chapter Gonzo you are enough of a VIP I'd say. |
| 09:12:13 | seven: | :- ) |
| 09:12:19 | : | * FrankW concurs. |
| 09:12:32 | ominoverde: | good idea, it seems easy to set up an official local chapter |
| 09:12:37 | ominoverde: | ;- ) |
| 09:12:42 | seven: | Thats the idea. |
| 09:12:48 | seven: | Why make it difficult. |
| 09:13:04 | ominoverde: | makes sense |
| 09:14:12 | : | * seven wonders what is an acceptable IRC lag. She is having a bottelneck in the network and can't find it. |
| 09:14:14 | ominoverde: | seven: setting up three local chapters is enough as as vip? maybe only Venka could beat me |
| 09:14:21 | seven: | Hehe. |
| 09:14:23 | : | * jsanz going for an email also... ( but not sure if it's a VIP apart for my mother ) |
| 09:14:39 | ominoverde: | hehehe |
| 09:14:43 | seven: | jsanz: go for it. |
| 09:14:59 | FrankW: | You guys can just give me the details of the userid/alias you would like @osgeo here rather than file tickets if you like. |
| 09:15:13 | seven: | I guess as Marketing member you should be able to communicate using an official osgeo email. |
| 09:16:00 | ominoverde: | FrankW: thx, we'll send a joint mail with jsanz |
| 09:16:45 | FrankW: | ok, that works too. |
| 09:18:09 | FrankW: | http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_2008-11-14#Minutes added... |
| 09:18:11 | sigq: | Title: Board Meeting 2008-11-14 - OSGeo Wiki ( at wiki.osgeo.org ) |
| 09:23:48 | seven: | He - this time at least had the time to ask for the minutes. :- ) |
| 09:36:14 | wildintellect: | anyone on speak italian, someone asked a question over in qgis and I tried to answer but I'm not sure if I did it right |
| 09:37:28 | doktoreas: | wildintellect, I am Italian..can I help? |
| 09:39:53 | seven: | crschmidt: Watch this, this is cool. wildintellect can't answer in Italian and calls for doktoreas to hop on #qgis. This works just fine. |
| 09:40:36 | crschmidt: | seven: And what happens when the person who emailed the qgis list *doesn't* email, because they felt uncomfortable asking? |
| 09:40:44 | doktoreas: | : ) |
| 09:41:45 | crschmidt: | I'm not completely unaware of the possible social solutions once you can get someone to cross the social hurdle of sending the first email -- but what I heard on this trip is that there are dozens of people who are using OpenLayers in their daily work, and unwilling to send an email to the list |
| 09:42:04 | crschmidt: | To those people, it is important ( in my opinion ) to help them find a community who can encourage them |
| 09:42:15 | seven: | Yes. Good. |
| 09:42:36 | : | * jsanz crschmidt, +1 |
| 09:42:48 | : | * seven is not trying to argument your point away, instead I am highly interested in supporting whatever helps to bridge the language gap. |
| 09:46:48 | darkblue_B: | looking at the Logo guidelines |
| 09:47:08 | darkblue_B: | Is the tag line still preferred?? 'Your Open Source Compass' |
| 09:47:31 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: it's built into the logo, right? |
| 09:47:35 | darkblue_B: | no |
| 09:47:48 | darkblue_B: | I just got a current logo from svn |
| 09:47:52 | crschmidt: | it's built into the logo on http://www.osgeo.org/logos/ ... |
| 09:47:54 | sigq: | Title: OSGeo Logo: Usage, History, and Downloads | OSGeo.org ( at www.osgeo.org ) |

| 09:48:48 | sigq: | Title: Revision 1283: /marketing/logo ( at svn.osgeo.org ) |
| 09:49:08 | darkblue_B: | ok, I can lve with a little chaos ;- ) |
| 09:49:23 | darkblue_B: | so the answer is... yes, thats the preferred line then |
| 09:49:37 | crschmidt: | I don't know which file you're looking at: Generally, the ones that say "Project" say that because they're to be used by projects |
| 09:49:45 | crschmidt: | if you're looking at a vector file, maybe there are more layers you're missing |
| 09:50:07 | darkblue_B: | sure.. I am guessng that all the copies of things just arent upated |
| 09:50:11 | darkblue_B: | not a problem |
| 09:51:10 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: Which file are you looking at? |

| 09:51:18 | sigq: | Title: Revision 1283: /marketing/logo ( at svn.osgeo.org ) |
| 09:51:19 | crschmidt: | srry, my questin was too implicit : ) |
| 09:51:21 | crschmidt: | that's a folder |
| 09:51:23 | crschmidt: | not a file |
| 09:51:27 | darkblue_B: | oh |
| 09:51:29 | crschmidt: | there are many files in that folder, including the one I pointed to : ) |
| 09:51:40 | darkblue_B: | right- ok |
| 09:51:45 | darkblue_B: | I got the .ai file |
| 09:51:55 | darkblue_B: | cause I am doing high res output |
| 09:52:07 | crschmidt: | and does it have more than one layer? |
| 09:52:14 | crschmidt: | I'd expect that there are probably layers for the various taglines |
| 09:52:17 | crschmidt: | that you can turn on and off |
| 09:52:20 | darkblue_B: | nope |
| 09:52:26 | darkblue_B: | ohhh- it said |
| 09:52:33 | crschmidt: | what tool are you using to open it? |
| 09:52:38 | darkblue_B: | .. this file made with a later version of Illustrator |
| 09:52:46 | darkblue_B: | I have cs - eg 10 |
| 09:52:51 | darkblue_B: | that might be it |
| 09:52:52 | crschmidt: | Hm. *shrug* I could just be wrong, too : ) |
| 09:52:54 | darkblue_B: | ok, I see |
| 09:53:08 | darkblue_B: | yeah - ok honest mstake |
| 09:53:18 | darkblue_B: | yes, could have more layers then |
| 09:53:35 | crschmidt: | anyway, to answer your question, "yes, that's still preferred" |
| 09:53:42 | crschmidt: | the "project" logo is definitely targeted for things like OpenLayers |
| 09:53:46 | crschmidt: | not for the foundation as a whole |
| 09:53:56 | darkblue_B: | ok, actually I have Illustrator 11.. but yes, thx, thats helpful |
| 09:54:30 | darkblue_B: | I see, well I am going to try my hand at a poster.. I'll run t by the channel in a while |
| 10:01:19 | crschmidt: | jmckenna: did you see http://www.flickr.com/photos/crschmidt/3026547655/ ? |

| 10:07:14 | TylerM: | how long idd you guys stay? get to see many sights? |
| 10:07:18 | TylerM: | or just the subway? ;- ) |

| 10:09:41 | crschmidt: | yeah, that's about right |
| 10:10:39 | : | * seven cannot believe that the logos are already a mess again. |
| 10:10:58 | seven: | THere is versions where the layers are set to "hide" but in some software they still show. |
| 10:11:08 | seven: | EPS in GIMP |
| 10:11:17 | : | * seven will try to fix this over the weekend. |
| 10:11:29 | seven: | I suggest we remove all vector files except SVG. |
| 10:11:47 | seven: | Any objections to unanimous consent? |
| 10:11:51 | crschmidt: | Um |
| 10:12:01 | seven: | Was that an objection? |
| 10:12:05 | seven: | :- ) |
| 10:12:11 | : | * crschmidt shrugs. I'm not a publisher person, but is that really going to work for everyone who is using the logos? |
| 10:12:20 | crschmidt: | I would assume that things like InDesign make working with SVG harder than it should be |
| 10:12:29 | crschmidt: | but can load EPS/AI relatively easily... |
| 10:12:35 | seven: | I don't know. Do we *need* anything but SVG? |
| 10:12:55 | seven: | Problem is that ai and whatnot else seem to always deliver inconsistent results. |
| 10:13:03 | crschmidt: | Well, what do we use the logo with? |
| 10:13:10 | seven: | Huh? |
| 10:13:28 | crschmidt: | The reason to have a vector image is to use the logo for non-web materials, I'd assume |
| 10:13:36 | crschmidt: | so what do we create the nn-web materials with -- what tool? |
| 10:13:39 | seven: | Imean the logo is pretty simple and striaght forward. And SVG has all you need. |
| 10:13:47 | TylerM: | seven: fyi - I'm talking to the conference call guys.. the service had an end date to the subscription.. |
| 10:13:54 | TylerM: | I'm looking at how to renew it and will get costs. |
| 10:13:56 | crschmidt: | SVG doesn't have all you need if the tool you're using doesn't support SVG. |
| 10:13:59 | seven: | It seems like everybody uses different stuff. |
| 10:14:09 | seven: | That is the problem. |
| 10:14:24 | crschmidt: | Right, so we should ask what people are using, and whether it supports SVG. |
| 10:14:32 | TylerM: | It's all this trouble with proprietary colour formats.. |
| 10:14:42 | seven: | Not only that. |
| 10:14:45 | TylerM: | often printer shops want to know our pantone numbers, etc. |
| 10:14:59 | TylerM: | or they have to be embedded.. not sure if svg handles that. |
| 10:15:07 | crschmidt: | Probably not. |
| 10:15:11 | seven: | Now the logo shows up with all the tag lines on top of each other because some packages do not recognize when a layer is turned hidden. |
| 10:15:45 | seven: | Well, qwe can send the pantone colors alongside. |
| 10:15:46 | crschmidt: | seven: It seems to me that in order to say "We should just use SVG" we'd have to first start *having* SVG, which I don't see currently. |

| 10:16:21 | sigq: | Title: Revision 1283: /marketing/logo/svg ( at svn.osgeo.org ) |
| 10:16:30 | crschmidt: | Okay, I'm blind. |
| 10:16:38 | : | * crschmidt kicks himself |
| 10:16:44 | ominoverde: | seven: had not the time to read all backlog, but: "I suggest we remove all vector files except SVG." this is not a good idea |
| 10:16:58 | ominoverde: | many printer just understand AI o few more... |
| 10:17:00 | seven: | Hehe. There we go. |
| 10:17:02 | ominoverde: | printers.. |
| 10:17:12 | : | * seven gives up. |
| 10:17:19 | ominoverde: | sorry :- ) |
| 10:17:39 | : | * seven already snores |
| 10:17:40 | crschmidt: | Probably makes sense to 'hide' the .ai by putting it in a subdir, and adding a readme that says "Use the SVG first! IT's better!" |
| 10:17:55 | seven: | Yes, that was my plan. |
| 10:18:03 | ominoverde: | crschmidt: +1 |
| 10:18:15 | ominoverde: | weird but should work |
| 10:18:23 | seven: | Good. We'll try this and then wait and see what happens. |
| 10:18:54 | seven: | Btw. - if you happen to come accross old version anywhere please drop them a note or if you don't want to bother tell me about it. |
| 10:19:02 | TylerM: | was someone actually using the .ai files!? |
| 10:19:08 | crschmidt: | TylerM: yes |
| 10:19:21 | crschmidt: | TylerM: darkblue_B was just using them, presumably because they were the most obvious ones from http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/logo/ |
| 10:19:22 | sigq: | Title: Revision 1283: /marketing/logo ( at svn.osgeo.org ) |
| 10:19:25 | crschmidt: | since they're in the directory, and the SVG is not. |
| 10:19:43 | TylerM: | oh, that folder needs cleanup |
| 10:19:46 | TylerM: | obviously : ) |
| 10:19:50 | darkblue_B: | hey TylerM - how are you feeling? |
| 10:20:04 | TylerM: | hi darkblue_B - well rested now.. sick family though :S |
| 10:20:10 | ominoverde: | seven: something like this linked form the home page? http://www.cafepress.com/osgeo |
| 10:20:11 | sigq: | Title: The OSGeo Store : CafePress.com ( at www.cafepress.com ) |
| 10:20:18 | darkblue_B: | ok - so I grabbed the frst file I saw |
| 10:20:28 | darkblue_B: | I use Illustrator from waay back |
| 10:20:28 | TylerM: | the .ai file is super old anyway |
| 10:20:35 | TylerM: | we don't have them for new one, as far as i know |
| 10:20:44 | darkblue_B: | ok - what to use then? |
| 10:20:58 | TylerM: | heh.. svg? |
| 10:20:58 | TylerM: | http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/logo/svg/ |
| 10:20:59 | sigq: | Title: Revision 1283: /marketing/logo/svg ( at svn.osgeo.org ) |
| 10:21:28 | TylerM: | hmm we should have eps and pdf in there somewhere... maybe i have them and didn't commit them yet |
| 10:21:36 | darkblue_B: | ai is pdf |
| 10:21:37 | sigq: | osgeofeed: Ticket #313 ( task created ): Create discuss list for new Quebec Local Chapter <http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/313> |
| 10:21:53 | TylerM: | really? good to know : ) |
| 10:22:05 | darkblue_B: | ai adds some extra goodies for editing purposes |
| 10:22:13 | TylerM: | seven: did you remove a bunch of files from that repository? seems like only a few exist there |
| 10:22:38 | darkblue_B: | ai used to be different, they went to pdf about 5 years ago or so |
| 10:23:06 | TylerM: | I don't think SVG will serve all purposes anyway.. I can see the conference organising committee going crosseyed when we send ours in svg ;- ) |
| 10:23:20 | TylerM: | darkblue_B: funny.. if only we'd known :D |
| 10:23:25 | darkblue_B: | I need somethng that will print |
| 10:23:37 | darkblue_B: | I can use fireworks instead of illustrator |
| 10:23:39 | TylerM: | i usually point people to the pdf or eps |
| 10:23:48 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: well, you're making a poster, right? |
| 10:23:52 | TylerM: | but i'm confused where they went.. |
| 10:24:04 | darkblue_B: | crschmidt: yep, I want to.. |
| 10:24:14 | darkblue_B: | havent started.. need to the good file |
| 10:24:18 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: You don't need something that will print directly, just something you can import into your poster-building file |
| 10:24:19 | wildintellect: | darkblue_B, I've moved to inkscape and scribus for vector and layout |
| 10:24:30 | wildintellect: | the svg files work well for those |
| 10:25:04 | darkblue_B: | hmmm well people I know use InDesign for most all print now |
| 10:25:22 | TylerM: | yeah, too bad it's so expensive :( |
| 10:25:24 | wildintellect: | basically either of those will output a pdf and you print the pdf |
| 10:25:31 | darkblue_B: | I am a little out of the loop.. a foot *out* of all worlds I guess ;- ) |
| 10:26:19 | darkblue_B: | TylerM: I am just reading the headlines here in the SF Bay aout the Sun layoffs.. and general comments from people, many of whom do not get OSS |
| 10:26:43 | wildintellect: | darkblue_B, take a look at http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/marketing/cards |
| 10:26:44 | sigq: | Title: /marketing/cards - OSGeo - Trac ( at trac.osgeo.org ) |
| 10:26:50 | darkblue_B: | the issue of monitization deserves further insight |
| 10:27:48 | darkblue_B: | wildintellect: you've been busy! |
| 10:29:05 | wildintellect: | the svg files are inkscape and the sla files are scribus |
| 10:29:40 | darkblue_B: | oops! OSGeo_Business_Card_wTag.pdf doesnt show up in OSX Preview! |
| 10:29:47 | darkblue_B: | thats not good |
| 10:29:49 | wildintellect: | they were started by importing the svg version of the logo |
| 10:29:51 | wildintellect: | hmm |
| 10:30:10 | crschmidt: | does for me... |
| 10:30:21 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: you clicked through the HTML preview and clicked download, right? |
| 10:30:33 | crschmidt: | you didn't just 'download link as' from the directory listing? |
| 10:30:56 | darkblue_B: | thx guys : ) I *dd* get the pdf file |
| 10:31:18 | crschmidt: | well, http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/marketing/cards/OSGeo_Business_Card_wTag.pdf?format=raw works for me in Preview.app |
| 10:31:54 | darkblue_B: | hmm |
| 10:33:00 | crschmidt: | what version of OS X? |
| 10:33:05 | darkblue_B: | 10.4 |
| 10:33:11 | crschmidt: | I'm on 10.5.4 |
| 10:33:19 | crschmidt: | may be something they've already fixed |
| 10:33:20 | darkblue_B: | thats a fair question.. maybe its that |
| 10:33:26 | crschmidt: | if it wasn't proprietary software, we could check |
| 10:33:29 | wildintellect: | maybe i picked to new a pdf version |
| 10:33:32 | crschmidt: | this is what you get for not going open source! |
| 10:33:41 | darkblue_B: | well I have some pdf toolks actully |
| 10:33:50 | darkblue_B: | but perhaps not tme for that |
| 10:34:24 | wildintellect: | it should be 1.4 but might be 1.5, can't remember what I clicked in the export |
| 10:34:44 | darkblue_B: | ok.. well at any rate |
| 10:35:04 | crschmidt: | darkblue_B: anyway, I'd expect most tools can load an SVG these days |
| 10:35:17 | darkblue_B: | SVG has a stormy past |
| 10:35:26 | TylerM: | darkblue_B: preview doesn't show on my 10.4 mac either |
| 10:35:30 | TylerM: | for that last url |
| 10:35:49 | : | * darkblue_B vindicated |
| 10:36:05 | TylerM: | i'm pretty it did work at one point.. maybe a diff file |
| 10:36:22 | : | * crschmidt repeats his assertion that this is just another reason not to use proprietary software like os x |
| 10:36:46 | TylerM: | if only... |
| 10:39:31 | wildintellect: | what about http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/marketing/cards/OSGeo_Projects_Card_2sided_10up_a4.pdf?format=raw |
| 10:39:56 | : | * cpm finds preview to be petty well behaved, , , usually. Seems like you need a plethora of pdf/ps viewers to really be covered. |
| 10:41:24 | cpm: | Is there supposed to a url on that card? |
| 10:41:27 | darkblue_B: | wildintellect: looks ok to me.. it draws something :- ) |
| 10:41:57 | darkblue_B: | wildintellect: hmm, but thats not the 3/4s cirlce, is it? |
| 10:42:04 | cpm: | looks good on the 2-sided one |
| 10:48:18 | wildintellect: | darkblue_B, if you look in the commit log changing the logo is on the todo list |
| 10:48:32 | TylerM: | lots to fix .. all around : ) |
| 11:01:37 | wildintellect: | maybe I'll update some when I'm on vacation next week |
| 11:02:41 | wildintellect: | cpm, even on linux I have 3+pdf viewers not including apps that can import pdfs |
| 11:08:48 | cpm: | wildintellect, Oh, I understand. I use all kinds of ps rendering stuff. |
| 11:09:23 | spatialguru: | any tried pdf import on OOo v3? |
| 11:12:23 | TylerM: | i'm working on apresentation template.. anyone know how to see if my fonts are going to be publicly available to other users? |
| 11:13:57 | markusN: | TylerM: just give it to a purist Linux user |
| 11:27:51 | : | * hobu is glad a quorum was met |
| 11:28:59 | wildintellect: | TylerM, what fonts did you use |
| 11:29:36 | TylerM: | none yet : ) |
| 11:32:03 | wildintellect: | 1 painful way is to check on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_typefaces#Unicode_fonts |
| 11:32:04 | sigq: | Title: List of typefaces - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ( at en.wikipedia.org ) |
| 11:32:23 | wildintellect: | at the specific ones... |
| 11:55:32 | TylerM: | man presentation software is a drag |
| 14:02:35 | crschmidt: | "You may not produce modified versions of the logos.

| 14:02:37 | sigq: | Title: Trademark Guidelines | OSGeo.org ( at www.osgeo.org ) |
| 14:02:40 | crschmidt: | could probably fill in that link these days |
| 23:01:54 | darkblue_B: | ok, well I have a kind of a poster.. |
| 23:02:09 | darkblue_B: | I have to say that OSS font is pretty .. uh, well, not pretty |
| 23:02:39 | darkblue_B: | though the word OSGeo itself looks ok |
