[Brand Manual] Edits to fit the new rule for the bang #103

Open Sandra97 opened 7 years ago

Sandra97 commented 7 years ago

As the bang is now compulsory only in the logo and the TM, the brand manual will have to reflect these changes.

When ready, ask @jeckodevelopment to review it before publishing.

Let me know when works for you Sandra and we can get it tuned up.

Sandra97 commented 7 years ago

I will send you the needed changes as soon as I have a clear statement about the new rules ;)

From the BoD meeting minutes:

The Board officially declares that it is not necessary to use the bang in Joomla name for blog posts/copy. It does not affect the logo, brand name and registered trademarks.

So plain body text doesn't need it. When using the logo or referring to the name in a trademark context, use it (i.e. the footer text on the Framework site which makes references to various registered and trade marks).

Sandra97 commented 7 years ago

As far as I know, we have 1 registered trademark, the others are trademarks but not registered.
If the brand name is used in the text, so the bang is still mandatory (and it's gonna be a pain). As not mentioned, I presume the bang in graphics is still mandatory.

@Radek-Suski can you ask the Board for a statement for this issue?

Radek-Suski commented 7 years ago

I did yesterday. We need to consult our lawyers first
