Just for context, creating a logo is something we want to do for swag (everyone loves swag!) for Stream. This is something that I'd like to pursue for my own team, the CPE team, who are instrumental in helping CentOS day to day and Rich pointed us towards the more formal route. I don't have answers to the questions Alain raises below bar 1 (see inline)

Hi, Artwork folks (and everyone else!)
Some people within Red Hat have a need/desire for a CentOS Stream logo which can be used to distinguish CentOS Linux from CentOS Stream for some messaging. They have proposed the attached for this purpose.
There were, in fact, several other proposed ideas, too, and I have pointed them to https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/issue/1 to continue that part of the conversation, as many of them involved changes to the core CentOS logo, which is, of course, a much larger conversation.
...and this CentOS Stream logo they propose wouldn't be part of it, doesn't it?
I'd view them as separate conversations for now, if the overall logo gets an overhaul the Stream logo follows suit. We didn't want to alter the main image and hit the brand issues ourselves.
Are there any objections from the Artwork SIG to using the proposed image?
No objections from me.
I think maybe it's not *strictly* compliant with our brand guidelines. Any thoughts here?
Yes, I do have a pair:
- What design process does Red Hat expect the CentOS community to
follow regarding CentOS brand constant reviewing? How much freedom does CentOS community has to agree or disagree with changes coming from the brand owner as well as the other way around.
- The CentOS brand is owned by Red Hat, but the process by which the
image is produced/enhanced, could it be considered a open source project on its own, with open and clean directives to follow. So, to make visible what we can and cannot do when we talk about enhancing the CentOS brand?
I'm answering this as a community member....I like the idea of a process done in the open for updates, an Open Decision Framework (ODF) kind of process to help decide on the new logo or modifications would be cool, that needs the brand guidelines which I'm not privy to.
Appreciate every time CentOS visual identity topics are risen. Thanks!
