Re: [ee4j-community] Jakarta EE logo selection process - next steps

I felt like we were just being ignored.  Had I know about Mike’s “kerfuffle” post I would not have persisted.  Having read it I see that he is paying attention and so I apologize for insisting that he was not paying attention to us (and that he was being an autocrat).  I agree that it would have helped if the “kerfuffle” post had been shared on this mailing list.  Perhaps that can be done in the future.

Anyone need a Tiger logo?  I got one to spare.

We can all be happy that       a strong group of people like the Eclipse Foundation is doing this job. We, who are outside of the Eclipse Foundation, couldn't make this job. Maybe we could agree on a logo, but maybe we couldn't even do that....

Yeah I think they have been remarkably open about it. If you look at the submission page they even detailed why entries were nixed:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Jakarta_Logo_Submission

If you look at the reasons you’ll see they are pretty specific, and expertise based.
