Yes, I should have mentioned that I definitely envision prominent
"Hosted by GNOME" (or something similar) branding on the Tomboy Online
site.  I have no desire to hide the association with GNOME, and in
fact, I want to make it clear that GNOME is in the web game.

Once we have a Grand Unified Branding strategy, I could see a banner
that says "Tomboy Online: A GNOME Online Joint", or "GNOME Online
Brings You: Tomboy Online", or whatever.  But I am clearly not a
designer. :-P

That really does seem like the most agile approach to me, too.
