Need NuttX Logo Submitted to Apache
Greg,
Do you have an SVG of the NuttX logo? Looks like we need to submit it as
instructed here:
https://www.apache.org/logos/about.html
I am trying to check off the remaining items here and I think the logo
requirement will be the last one. I have a PR for the other website issues.
Thanks,
Brennan

Yes you're most likely right about that.
Maybe we should use the existing logo as the interim logo until graduation
and then hold a logo contest?

Hi,

That would be correct but I wouldn’t let that stop you from making a new logo now. Some projects put the word Apache in the logo so it potentially has more protection.
Whoever created the logo would need to licence under terms we could use or give us permission to use without restrictions.
Thanks,
Justin

I don't know the answer, but I doubt that the ASF would be involved in
trademarking before graduation at any rate.

If the new logo is the property of the ASF, then isn't the ASF
handling issues of trademarking etc?

I suppose we would also need some kind of grant from the designer to
give us exclusive use of the image as well(?)

If we select a new logo, we should also get a trademark on it. That is
around $600 per country. For the US, China, and EU that would be around
$1800.

I think the idea of the contest been anonymous is because people will focus
exclusively in the logo art instead of considering who submitted it.
Nathan, a way we could do it is defining a trusted people to receive the
logo by e-mail and putting it on ASF voting page.
What do you think?

Hi,
I don’t think it needs to anonymous, but you can make it that way if you want to. The more important part is to do it openly and transparently and involve the whole community. I don’t see any bias here just the opportunity to involve more people.
Thanks,
Justin

I like the idea of a logo contest.
How do people submit a logo anonymously?

My suggestion is to do a contest to select the best Logo, this way the
community could submit logos as well and we will select the best one,
without knowning its origin.
If we know it is coming from Xiaomi we could be biased because Xiaomi is a
great NuttX contributor ;-)
What you think guys?

Hint - they could bring that process onlist and get other people involved. Working on things off list isn’t exactly the Apache Way.
In fact, why not open it to the whole community? Apache Flex did that and got a lot of really good submissions and we ended up choosing one from someone not directly involved with the project.
Thanks,
Justin

Nandier and his team is working on the new logo. Let's wait and see what
they will create.

Hi,
> I think we should celebrate the new Apache NuttX with a new, more contemporary logo. I have some nostalgic feelings for my old, rustic. hand drawn logo; I drew that when I first released the project in 2007. However, a graphics artist at Xiaomi, Nan Dier, has offered to create some new ideas.
Apache central services can also able to help with a new logo.
It also a good idea to put your logo here, so you can get stickers for ApacheCons and other events. [1]
Thanks,

Not really. Alan made an SVG of the logo a few years back, but it
doesn't look very much like the original and I cannot recommend it.
I think we should celebrate the new Apache NuttX with a new, more
contemporary logo. I have some nostalgic feelings for my old, rustic.
hand drawn logo; I drew that when I first released the project in 2007.
However, a graphics artist at Xiaomi, Nan Dier, has offered to create
some new ideas.
I suggest we wait awhile to see what kind of newer, more contemporary,
more professional logo we can come up with. This will probably need to
be color coordinated with the website color scheme as well.
