[03:53] klepas? [03:54] hey troy_s [03:54] how's it going? [03:55] fine thanks [03:55] little less busy the last week [03:55] have you heard of some of the ideas to put some kick back into an art group? [03:56] no. [03:56] if you speak of official work, things might settle down a bit as kwwii is in charge of the wallpaper [03:56] had a good chat to jono at linux.conf.au, Sydney mid January [03:56] talking community work [03:56] and i believe sabdfl will invite the community to develop the rest. [03:56] that is aimed for universe [03:56] well that's a snap really [03:57] very easy for those who are interested [03:57] we have also been working with dholbach for automated artwork building [03:57] so that the packages get updated automatically [03:57] but that is only really relevant for someone who is interested in having a chunk of work in development [03:58] yea [03:58] not the gnome-look 'poop it out and run' mode. [03:58] well a bunch of us are going to get together and try to do a complete gnome ubuntu desktop themed set [03:58] from wallpapers to splashes for various apps and whatnot :) [03:58] and then package that for universe with dholbachs help hopefully [03:59] sure [03:59] that's easy [03:59] shouldn't be an issue [03:59] didn't consider it to be really :) [03:59] what is the motif? [04:00] a bunch of us are annoyed at the state of the artwork "team" and want to revive it by producing work in a collaborative fashion [04:00] that's pretty much it i guess [04:00] uh that's great [04:01] but what is the motif / thematic? [04:01] as in the theme of the work? [04:01] yes [04:02] not entirely decided yet :) [04:02] we'll get to it when we start doing some work i guess [04:02] :) [04:03] what are you going to use as the collaborative anchor? [04:03] regarding tool [04:03] elaborate? [04:04] how are you going to accomplish the collaboration? [04:04] it's just a bunch of friendly people communicating via irc and email who are going to get some work done and share the work they do in source files as well [04:05] a bunch of us have webservers we can use to upload stuff too [04:05] to, rather [04:06] So is it a 'do something to do something' project? [04:07] it's a "we're creative people and are sick of doing stuff solo, so lets combine skills and talents to do some cool shit for ubuntu!" === lizardking_ [n=lizardki@87.7.128.73] has joined #ubuntu-artwork [04:25] lizardking_: how are you friend? [04:25] lizardking_: have you pushed anything new to bzr? [04:26] troy_s: I'm in study pause :D [04:26] lizardking_: also, regarding the logo issue, have you considered changing the title to 'orange soda' or something at least as generic (in north american terms) to avoid the copyright issues? [04:26] troy_s: I will commit new splash in these days [04:27] lizardking_: great. do you have a logo for it yet? [04:28] might be nice to have an official logo for the look [04:28] (the rather lovely oransoda logo is out obviously) [04:29] troy_s: In artwork-ML they tell me that because the trademak is of an other category (italian commercial drinking ) and mine is for arts and theming, they think that it will be right [04:29] troy_s: yes a custom personal logo it will be cool! [04:29] Herm... I somehow doubt that lizardking_ [04:29] Now I report the copyright mail [04:29] not to sound depressing, but my wife is a lawyer [04:30] wait [04:30] it isn't just a copyright when it is a logo [04:30] troy_s: ok ok I will heard you [04:30] it is also a registered trademark [04:30] etc [04:30] yes It is a registrant copyright [04:30] and the trademark would _probably_ put you in jeopardy [04:30] jeopardy? [04:30] trouble ;) [04:31] Namely, they would hold the right to control everything about that brand logo [04:31] From name, to colours, etc. [04:31] IIRC [04:32] So you would be wise to perhaps just avoid it all together and migrate to the more generic "orange soda" -- which would be completely open (as long as you avoid that oransoda logo styling) [04:32] troy_s: Mhh I do really not want to goes in trouble!!! [04:33] troy_s: this is the mail [04:33] For Iacopo Masi, I have done a quick search of oransoda in google-image [04:33] and I discovered that Oransoda was an italian trademark. I have some [04:33] basic knowledge about the use of a trademark and there is no possiblity [04:33] to identify the drink with the theme so you should be able to use that [04:33] name. So you should remove the post-it in the synopsis that is the [04:33] pattented logo. [04:35] who wrote that though [04:35] if they aren't a lawyer, it is nothing more than speculation really. [04:35] troy_s: From: Yann Papouin [04:36] the bottom line is either get an authoritative lawyer discussion on ir or avoid it. [04:36] s/ir/it [04:36] troy_s: However if you wife advice me, I will chaned the name early. I do not want to go arrested :D [04:38] troy_s: I should change all files of 'oransoda' or just the package name? [04:43] lizardking_: I'll ask for some free legal advice when she gets home [04:43] lizardking_: My gut tells me that if it is a registered trademark that you might want to avoid the complexity and simply change it... [04:43] but again, it is well out of my knowledge sphere. [04:44] troy_s: Thank you very much, friend. What Should I do now? [04:44] No idea. [04:44] change the wiki page name, the package name, the files ...etc? [04:44] lizardking_: My personal thinking would be to avoid registered trademarks. [04:44] troy_s: My personal too :D [04:45] lizardking_: but that is your choice... if you want to keep going with it, then it would require some official lawyer thinking. [04:45] troy_s: But it's a big work to rename all occurrencies. I must rename page wiki, package, files, launchpad product. Right? [04:45] The problem is that brand trademarks are very often guarded and protected by the companies that own them. [04:46] troy_s: Yes and I haven't that support [04:46] lizardking_: Yes it would be, unfortunately. I don't see much of any other way. [04:46] troy_s: Ok So I will create a new page wiki and other rest [04:46] For example, you can't put the Pepsi logo on anything, in any capacity, that isn't officially endorsed by Pepsi. [04:46] right! [04:46] you are right [04:46] The problem lies in the fact that branding in the our current society often distills down to the simple use of a logo (Nike, etc.) [04:46] it is possibile to rename page wiki? :D [04:47] yes [04:47] Think before you do it though -- you will need to try and figure out where all the cross links come from. [04:47] Pull down tab renames. [04:51] troy_s: So I should wait your wife or now starting to rename all links? [04:52] Even if you get a lawyer's opinion, you will find another lawyer who could argue it. [04:52] The problem lies in the fact that there is a _chance_ for issues, and my gut instinct tells me to simply avoid the hassle and avoid it all together. [04:52] But again, that is _my_ opinion, and not exactly grounded in an extensive knowledge of global trademark law ;) [04:54] Mhh ok understand. I m sure to change name [04:55] Now It is time to work hard to change all name links, files , wiki etc.. sobh :8 === PingunZ [n=PingunZ@190.187-240-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu-artwork [04:56] Most importantly are the logo appearances. [04:56] troy_s: for example? [04:57] This is the central page for the development of the Oransoda theme --> the OrangeSoda [04:57] ??' [04:58] If that is your title... [04:58] I don't know how many occurances of the OranSoda(TM) logo you have [05:02] I have some occurances and the wiki page name [05:06] troy_s: damn, http://www.orangesoda.com/ anohter TM [05:08] it is possible [05:08] but the reality is that the name "Orange Soda" is pretty generic [05:08] I would say that your design versus theirs is quite inherently different [05:09] So I must pick a less generic name? [05:09] Ultimately, it is up to you. [05:09] But I think that whatever name you settle on [05:09] If you were to say, like Orange Soda [05:10] I wouldn't worry about the trademark too much as your design is quite different from theirs [05:10] it only really becomes an issue if you start using official logos [05:10] etc. [05:11] But I preface all of that with the reminder that we are 'guessing' on some level, as we are not lawyers ;) [05:12] yes right. We are not lawyers [05:12] troy_s: OranSun, how does it sounds? === andreasn_ [n=andreas@h101n1fls31o839.telia.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork === brottman [n=brianr@vpn.beenegarter.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork === brottman [n=brianr@vpn.beenegarter.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork === andreasn_ is now known as andreasn [05:38] troy_s: Are you there?
