[jira] [Commented] (IGNITE-15372) Remove companies logos from the homepage

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-15372?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17407586#comment-17407586 ] 

Denis A. Magda commented on IGNITE-15372:
-----------------------------------------

We can replace the logos with the following text and some eye-catching graphic:
 * Text: _Your favorite streaming, gaming, banking, travel or shopping application probably uses Apache Ignite. Learn why the elite developers and architects selected Ignite to create applications used by millions of people daily!_
 * _Graphics:_ something related to the fact that Ignite remains a top 5 project of the ASF across several categories - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xZ2cfH_YiuNrf8-YSIsupGU3eU9qovhrfdF0etPhp3c/edit

> We have to remove the logos of the companies that use Ignite from the homepage (this rule doesn't apply to other pages). 
> WHY: the ASF is strictly vendor-neutral. Listing company names and/or logos on a project's home page is disallowed as it can imply "ownership" or preferred status or otherwise imbalanced relationship. Whether this is the case or not, it is not acceptable. The policy is the same as "thanking" companies for their support of a project [http://apache.org/foundation/marks/linking#projectthanks]
> As an alternative, we can create a "powered by" section similar to what the Kafka community has: http://kafka.apache.org
