It now seems we've consensus on proceeding with the call for artwork. [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2012/01/msg00001.html Can someone from the publicity/press team help us out with finalizing the text of the call, starting from the excellent draft above already provided by Jeremiah? Here are a few thoughts / suggested changes on the above: - also mention #debian-dekstop on irc.d.o as a contact point - maybe anticipate that the requirements are at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Artwork/Requirements even though it is spelled out at wiki.d.o/DebianDesktop/Artwork/Wheezy? (not sure about this one) - should we add a deadline (e.g. 2 months from now?) we will probably have to extend it, but I've the impression knowing there *is* a deadline might motivate people in participating ASAP, rather than waiting the very last minute Many thanks in advance for your help, Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli zack@{upsilon.cc,pps.jussieu.fr,debian.org} . o .
