The technical problem: >From a technical pov it makes no sense to put big image binaries into the repository when a small svg image would be sufficient to generate all other images. The political problem: For an open source project a closed image is a no go. We (and by we I mean we as the community, not we as Pengutronix) must for example be able to: - generate versions with different colors, sizes, dimensions - generate a logo without text - modify the image and to redistribute without limitations - add a journal to the logo and use it for bwn.org (barebox weekly news) ;) Sascha -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
