Artwork takes time and evolves. The fact that we don't know quite where it's going doesn't mean we shouldn't still keep it rolling. What happens if the standards are agreed, but artwork is still weeks / months away? I still think the college / University source for art is a good one. Is there an overlap between Walnut Creek's and the award artwork approaching here? just my 2 kroner worth To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
