Logo for Embedded WG

[jamesmunns]

We would like to have a logo for use with newsletters, release announcements, stickers, etc.

Ideally, we would like to have something by 2018-06-23.

We should ensure that commercial companies (e.g. chip vendors) are free to use the logo in any Rust SDKs or driver packs they may distribute in the future.

Agreed, "general usage requirements" would be good to have in writing with the logo. We can borrow pretty heavily from https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/legal.html, and maybe customize for our expected use cases

Here's a logo I made in some spare time.

Hello everyone, please check the samples below. If there are any corrections you'll like me to make, please kindly inform me. And I'll happily correct them.. 😃 🎉

I'll still make the edges lot more smoother and curvy (as it's still a bit rough at the edges).

Yeah, that's the thing. I would have thought making a kick-ass SDK to sell more chips would count as commercial, and so they'd need to get permission to use the Rust logo. At least that was my interpretation.

[thejpster]

So I would vote for the 'R' logo on a chip. Who should we reach out to to get clarification on companies using this logo for their products (e.g. BSPs written in Rust). And, if it turns out that's a no-go, should we just use this logo for our purposes anyway, because it's really cool?

[therealprof]

I totally agree with @thejpster here.

[jamesmunns]

Sounds like we have two votes for @Aaronepower. If anyone else wants to make any comments, let me know. We will discuss at the next embedded WG meeting (about a day from now) - #111, and hopefully get this decided then.

[jamesmunns]

Based on discussion here, we have accepted the logo from @Aaronepower. Progress on this will now be tracked in this PR: #120.

Thank you so much to @tnkemdilim and @Aaronepower for submitting logos!
