<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Lori,<br>
<br>
I wasn't a member of the Board when the idea to redesign the logo
was first raised and only came in at the tail end of the
discussion when some logos were passed around at the meeting in
Indianapolis. Could somebody give me some background on why we
were considering a new logo? I've been involved in re-branding
efforts before, but they've typically happened when a logo has
become dated, stale, or sometimes just plain ugly. I've always
found the current logo to be clean,simple, and effective at
identifying the Evergreen product.<br>
<br>
I'm not necessarily opposed to change, but just curious about the
previous discussions I missed. I'm also hoping a logo redesign
doesn't delay any efforts to have some swag available in time for
this year's conference. I'm anxious to buy all sorts of Evergreen
stuff for the family! :)<br>

new designs for us to consider? Maybe $500 worth of ideas?<br

<div>I think the notion of redesigning the logo is still
on the table (Lori?), but as I wouldn't expect a logo
change to happen quickly, I think there's plenty of
time to sell stuff based on the existing logo.</div>

not sure what kind of feedback we’re looking
for. Maybe just some advice since they might

<div>Besides general advice, I would expect that the
Conservancy can give tips on good vendors to use, and
certainly would be able to let us know if there are
any legal pitfalls to avoid.</div>

<div>Please let us know what you find out. It would
depend on the type of merchandise in question; for
example, t-shirts can often be produced on demand,
