Could we
make the logo discussion an
agenda topic for the PMC meeting next week?
Yup on
the polish of
#12. I was hoping for something like the link in #13 togeher with #12.
As for fonts, really suggest we stay away from the "fancy"
fonts. They will look dated in 12 months and hopelessly retro in 24.

Just so
everyone knows,
we can take elements from any of the concepts and combine them
together.
For instance if you like the font in one but the logo in the other, we
can work
with that.
For me I
like in #18 how
RT stands out but I would prefer a small ‘e’ similar to the
existing Eclipse logo. The icon in #12 is interesting but I agree
with Mark it needs some work graphical. For instance, I don’t think
it would be easy to reproduce on a shirt. I also don’t mind the
icon in #10 and #11.

It would be good to allow
the RT graphic to be utilized for sub
projects. Otherwise, sub projects will have to generate there own
branding.
What
does the icon in #12 show? Are the grey parts links? It seems to me to
be
a combination of 2D and 3D elements, which I don't think looks very
polished.
The RT Marketing page (http://wiki.eclipse.org/RT_Marketing_page)
does not
explicitly state this intention. It does state the following ...
Eclipse currently has an Eclipse Runtime top-level project and PMC. It
is
expected that all projects within this top-level project will us the
EclipseRT
brand on their project web site. They will also be encourage to refer
to
themselves 'part of EclipseRT'. Eclipse projects, outside of the
Eclipse
Runtime PMC, that operate as runtime application frameworks,
specifically not
tool frameworks, will be encourage to use the EclipseRT brand.
But this does not seem to give the impression that subprojects can use
the
EclispeRT logo as a basis for their own logos. I think it is a fine
thing to
add to the wiki as a goal. What do others think?
For the new logo proposals:
I like 12 the best. It seems to convey a sense of modularity to me. I
also like
the looks of 10 but I am not sure what the significance of the Saturn
looking
planet is. I don't have a big preference on the font used for EclipseRT
but I
do think the font selected must make RT stand out. For me it is all
about the
graphic and whether it will be a recognizable icon without the words
EclipseRT.
For me 12 seems to fit this requirement the best.

I like #12.
Do we envision these logos to be used as a base for subprojects logos?
For
example I'd like to have a p2 logo, and I was thinking that rather than
inventing a totalling new thing, I would reuse the drawing part and
tack on p2.

are some more options for the EclipseRT logo. I believe this set

a lot more promising.
