Kafka logos and branding

Hi,

As I mentioned on the dev list I can see the logos for the Kafka project are out of date. [1] Just a suggestion - which you are free to ignore. From a branding and trademark perspective it's going to help the project if 3rd parties have access to the correct logos. Having something on your trademark page [2] might help people use the right logos.

Thanks,
Justin

Hi, Justin,

The logo in Apache Kafka website has been updated. The high resolution
image is also linked from the trademark page.

Thanks,

Thanks for that, just odd that I've see it with the Apache and R symbol elsewhere and assumed that was the official one. It doesn't  match the logo on the Kafka website for instance.

Thanks,

Hi, Justin,

Yes, we confirmed from ASF branding that this is the correct logo (i.e.
without the word Apache and the registered trademark symbol).

Thanks,

Thanks for that, but is that the correct logo? It's missing the word apache, the registered trademark symbol and the text "A distributed streaming platform". I guess the byline could be optional, but I would assume the two other things are not, particularly for 3rd party use? 

Thanks,
Justin

Hi, Justin,

The high resolution logo is now available at
https://apache.org/logos/res/kafka/kafka_highres.png. We will link it to
the Apache Kafka website.

Thanks,
