I'm really not sure. It seems to have creeping layers of complexity.
If I can grab the png from the design page and give that to a button
vendor why do I need to do more to get the template to give to the
vendor?

And while this is the ambassador list so it is natural to talk about
ambassadors doing these things I want to understand clearly whether
there is an intention to restrict it to ambassadors. Non-ambassador
group contributors have done this same work in the past and I'd rather
not exclude them from doing so in the future. I raised this point on
the legal list as well but it still isn't clear to me in either the
new draft of the guidelines or in discussions various place that I've
seen.
