Committee contacted all State Coordinators and Archive/National Special
Project Coordinators to request current membership lists for their respective
Projects.
The Election Committee
was directed by the Advisory Board to ". . . conduct a poll of the membership
to establish the wishes of the membership as to whether one or multiple
logos should be used by the Project." The Elections Committee accepted
registrations for this poll from January 12, 2005 thru January 26, 2005.
The Election committee
presented a draft proposal for the wording of the upcoming Logo poll. The
Advisory Board voted in late January for the following wording:
"(1) Should The USGenWeb
Project have only one official logo design, which each member site shall
be required to display prominently, or should there also be additional
approved logo designs from which members can choose? One Logo Multiple
Logos
(2) If this poll determines
that most respondents want multiple logo choices, then how many alternative
logo designs should be available to choose from?(in addition to the one
"official" logo): 1, 2, 3, more than 3"
