Okay, I'll pull the logo gnokii and I worked on out of the comps sheet
and add it with the SVG to that ticket, thanks for the link.

Okay, I am assuming then since you haven't indicated otherwise that it
is okay to move forward with the design we'd already worked out, so as
noted above I'll update the ticket with that and take ownership for
getting Ben's final approval on the logo specifically.

It seems a lot of discussion has been happening about this (and other
fudcon-related projects) outside of the ticket system so the automated
ticket comment notifications would not have been much help. (I'm just as
guilty of this as anybody else.)

Should we be treating the ticket system as the canonical place to have
discussions then? I see discussions scattered across this mailing list,
IRC, other mailing lists, and even Google Docs (I think this is a very
bad habit and is not open source)... it makes it harder for folks to
participate or even just follow along when it's not clear what's going
on and where it's happening. 

Do folks get ticket mails for all team tickets or only the tickets
they're cc'ed on? (If the latter that solution could be an issue?)

What does everybody else think?

It doesn't. It does mean, however, the person who owns the ticket should
be communicated with so we're all on the same page and don't duplicate
efforts. A ticket-owner doesn't necessarily have to be the one doing the
artwork but I think they should be the one pushing the project forward
and making sure it happens at the very least; if that isn't happening
though, and there's a ticket you're interested in working on, it's good
to reassign the ticket to yourself (after communicating with the ticket
owner) so folks know it's not neglected. We can work as a team when
playing ball, but not everyone can hold the ball at the same time!

Much appreciated.
