@michael-collins has indicated that he would be interested in designing a logo for Open Ulmus. I'm adding an issue here and relating it back to #1

@cleverington Is there a mission statement somewhere, or something that I can read to understand the brand we are trying to build? Are there existing brands that we are similar to? This would help me get started.

Mission statement: An open collective sustained project for the public production and sharing of knowledge.

btopro commented 6 years ago

open collective part less important; more important is the public production and dissemination of knowledge. think if an organization were to have as it's mission to produce HAX, OERSchema and then use ELMS:LN to deploy open materials. We're focusing on FOSS projects leveraging these things but really it's about making anyone into their own Kahn Academy w/ better tools.

I think a big part of the murkiness is we've yet to get input and consensus from the entire team https://openulmus.org/#_team on the high level stuff like mission, goals, plan to sustain, etc.

Unity around https://github.com/openulmus/openulmus.org/issues/57 (and the issues referenced) should provide whoever is tasked with owning #1 to get all those details into the site spec.

At least that's my take on the situation....

I would disagree on the murkiness, as the Mission statement, in current form, was 'checked off' during our December meeting. Opening discussion on changing the Motto, however, may be needed based on the 501(c3) topic we'll be discussing in our 02/20/2018 team meeting.

The working-doc for Notes / Thoughts on Open Ulmus is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11Wz3Qj1IVZHkbDzi0mi4eee4r-ulkh3Qs6pmHB5RIoY/edit

Note: Much of the doc may / may not be out of date, as it does not have a 'lock' functionality, per-say, and kept getting edited. For the 'state' of the content / verbiage at year's end, just refer to the website and #34.
