COMPCOMM logo competition.

["L. Cranswick" <lzc@dl.ac.uk>]

Around 2 years ago - on the list of things to do (which included
the On-line newsletter) was to get an informal  competition going
to try and get a good looking logo for the Computing Commission.

No one objected at the time - so would it be OK to get on the
case with this - and have a CompComm logo competition.
With the Siena 2005 school coming up - it would be good to
also include this for logo submissions.  The BCA seems to
be very good at these logo competitions - and it would be 
interesting to see what people come up with.
 (Newsletter priorities stopped this happening in the past)

If no-one objects, I will get on the case with this on the weekend.

Lachlan.

PS:  Intended rule is that participants retain the copyright of their 
art - but by submitting to the competition they are giving the IUCr
Computing Commision the right to make unrestricted use of their
art as a log.  Unless someone has a better and non-intimidating 
suggestion that would not alienate possible submissions?
