[ZDP] Re: OSWG Logo

[Tom Deprez]

Hi All,

I've also some great news! The author of the OSWG-logo wants to create a
ZDP-logo! With the mail of yesterday in my head, this makes 2 graphic
designers. Not? Maybe thats too much? But I don't think so.

Does someone wants to give some guidelines? :

'Do any ZDP members have some ideas about what they want from the logo? Are
there any restrictions or guidelines? Do you have a time-frame in mind?'

Regards, Tom
