Ok, the GNOME logo mandatory and the GNOME name... possibly optional
because having two words in a single logo (GNOME + GUADEC) may be a
tough design exercise. Agreed?

I don't know if I'm interpreting right the no-opinions about this
contest but I like the idea, it will be useful for the GUADEC & GNOME
promotion, it fits in the current marketing trends and I'm going to push
for it.  :)

The GUADEC sponsorship strategy could be a combination of general and
loyal sponsors (advisory board, basically) plus some other more
specialised/local that could sponsor specific actions i.e. 25
registraton fees of local developers, 5 sponsorship to African
developers, 500 drink vouchers for the GUADEC party... We could target
the Vilanova Tourism Office for these 2 contests in order to finance the
visit to the town of two very creative people + partners.

The contests could be announced with the released of the site - a good
step to assure an initial wave of GNOME-friendly visitors to the site.
Deadline: one month + 1 week to decide the winner.

The jury could be formed by one representant of:

- GNOME Foundation - the owners of the brand
- GUADEC committee - the contest organisers
- art.gnome.org - main source of contributors (I)
- gnome-look.org - main source of contributors (and II)
- GIMP development team - experts in creative GTK+ tools (I)
- Inkscape development team - experts in creative GTK+ tools (and II)
- Vilanova - the local eye
- The sponsor - getting them involved as well
- The community - based on the results of a poll in the GUADEC website

We would find an online procedure to get the winners in a not too
time-consuming way.
