artwork for cordova
I poked around the cordova doc git repo to see if there was any artwork
lying around we could reuse on the CMS. Didn't see any. Did I miss it, or
do we really have nothing? If we have nothing, any possibility that Adobe
would be willing to contribute any pre-existing PhoneGap artwork to
cordova? OTOH, good excuse to come up with some new artwork. :-)

Nice work Yohei.
My vote is the robot. It scales will from 2D => 3D, low-res => high-res. It
can also become a mascot figure for Cordova.

I like them both, and don't see why we can't use both of them.
Couple of notes on the street sign.
- I think we should get rid of the "ST". There's enough homage to the
original sign, and the ST is just going to confuse people. "What's the ST
for?" A decade+ ago, I would have wondered if this was something for
Smalltalk. :-)
- I think maybe the pole is overkill. One nice thing about the street sign
is that it''ll make for a good horizontal image (and vertical, just
rotating it 90 deg). But then the pole kind of sticks out of the bottom.
The other thing about the pole is that it makes it a little more obvious
that it's a street sign. Might as well add some mystery. Removing the
"ST" also removes clues.

Both are awesome, Yohei! Can we use both?
I like the robot one due to it working out at smaller sizes.

Re: artwork for cordova

Hey guys,
So I got two designs to show for now.
The first one borrows Patrick's street sign idea: http://cl.ly/3a0C3O0S3E3L3K0R2P3f
I looked at pics of Street signs in Gastown (e.g. http://scoutmag.s3.amazonaws.com/2011/12/IMG_00571.jpg) and chose colours, shape and font based on that.
The second one is what looks like a robot head: http://cl.ly/2o1p2R2A1p0x1R3h001t
I may add little a bit more details to the visor since it's transparent. Show more mechanical guts perhaps. The nice thing about this one is it'll scale nicely and will still be recognizable at smaller sizes because the shape is fairly simple.
Let me know what you guys think.

Great. You can see my lame attempt right now -
http://incubator.apache.org/callback/
BTW, I loved the little robots images that were done last year, whoever did
those.
Immediate needs are a banner logo (the one of the front page), and a
favicon-sized - 32x32 or 64x64, though we will likely also want a 512x512
square logo for other purposes, later.

The "Powered by" concept is for use as a "Powered by Apache Cordova"
or "Powered by Cordova" graphics targeted at third parties who are
using Cordova. For example a downstream PhoneGap distribution by Adobe
would be "Powered by Cordova". Thus I'd drop the "Powered by" part
from the main project logo.
You could try how it'd look with the smaller "Apache" on top of the
main "Cordova" text, a bit like in the example logos I pointed to,
since the official name of the project is "Apache Cordova" (think of
"Microsoft Windows" or "Adobe Photoshop").

Hey guys,
So from what I understand, for me to be accepted to the committer list, I need to be voted in first. Is that correct Jukka? If that is the case, could someone start PMC private discussion about this? Thank you!

See [1] and the referenced pages for the process to get commit access at Apache.
Meanwhile, all that's required is for the contributor (Yohei in this
case) to indicate that the contributed work is OK for inclusion under
the ALv2 ([2], note especially section 5). The contribution can happen
in pretty much any way is convenient, for example through email (like
here), the CB issue tracker or a pull request. The committer who
accepts the contribution has the primary responsibility to check that
the contribution was voluntary and falls under the ALv2 (which section
5 of the license makes normally pretty easy to do for typical small
contributions).
Once the project team is happy with someones contribution's, they can
(and should) vote to invite him or her to join the team as a fellow
committer and a (P)PMC member. I'm hoping that we get a chance to
practice this process soon enough.

Awesome! I'd like to get this on the CMS. It would be great if you could
check these into an existing project like cordova-docs or something,
assuming you're allowed to commit (and if you're not, make yourself allowed
to commit). Check in the individual files, not the .zip file.

I've zipped Cordova related assets there.
Under Icon, you'll find size 512~16 with transparent background. You'll also find Android and iOS icon specific sizes. Under logo, you'll find the logo with "APACHE CORDOVA" text in 4 different variations.

I think we'll want a specialized set of icons based on the robot head -
32x32 up through 512x512, so that we can use these to create the odd 47x47

We may want "dark" and "light" themes, as well as "color" and "mono"
themes, which you're obviously already playing with.
