Open Stack

Hello Tong Li,

Originally, we had selected oak tree as a mascot, but there is another openstack project with a similar name and we were worried that it would be too confusing, so we asked the foundation to change it to the onion. I think the analogy we used was that interoperability is many-layered, like onion.

Here is more info about OpenStack project mascots: https://www.openstack.org/project-mascots/

"We want to promote OpenStack's projects and their benefits with fresh new visuals to represent them. Project teams now have an opportunity to select a mascot to show their project's capabilities and personality.

The idea is to create a family of logos for OpenStack projects that are unique, yet immediately identifiable as part of OpenStack. We'll be using these logos to promote your project on the OpenStack website, at the Summit and in marketing materials.

Any official OpenStack project in the big tent can have its own logo. Project teams pick an animal or natural feature as their mascot, and a professional illustrator will create their logo in a consistent style across projects."


Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you,

Egle

Egle, very happy to know that the team is getting a mascot, can you provide a bit of explanation how to interpret it? I did a google search on interoperability and came up with quite a lot images, the following one is very easy to get it. not suggesting we use this or anything similar, just like to know what the proposed image means. Thanks.
