Thanks Oiwan. Good points you make. I look forward to more people's
comments.
The logo was designed by our in-house designer at the JMSC, Matthew. He had
made one other design but it looked too much like the CC license button
itself, so upon consulting with Catharina we decided against it. However I
think if we give him our feedback, we can ask him to make some more
modifications to this logo or try other ideas. While the student project
effort is a nice idea, I'm a little worried about the amount of time it will
take, and who will organize this effort, and whether the time and effort of
organizing it will take energy away from core launch planning - which we are
already struggling to do well.
Best,
Rebecca
