Open Source and Open Source Hardware logos, OSI and the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://www.oshwa.org/">Open Source Hardware Association</a> (OSHWA) have worked together to compose a co-existence agreement on behalf of their representative communities. We are pleased to announce that this document (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://www.oshwa.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/OSI-OSHWA-Agreement.pdf">PDF</a>) has been approved and signed by both parties! </p><p>This means that each group separately has control of their respective logo and in particular that the Open Source Hardware community can continue using the OSWH logo with no changes. As per the agreement, OSHWA will (in the near future) publish guidelines for the use of the OSHW logo, designed to promote its use in compliance with the Open Source Hardware Definition. Until then, if you are using the OSWH logo please make sure that you are following <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://www.oshwa.org/definition/">the definition</a>. As ever, if you want to use the OSI logo please see <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://opensource.org/trademark">the trademark usage pages</a>. </p><p>Working with other organizations is just one of the ways we serve the community. Through your membership support, both OSHWA (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://www.oshwa.org/membership/">join now</a>) and OSI (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://opensource.org/join">join now!</a>) hope to continue representing your needs.</p></div></div></div> </div> <div class="clearfix"> <div class="links"><ul class="links inline"><li class="blog_usernames_blog first"><a href="/web/20130123151348/http://opensource.org/blog/18418" title="Read webmink's latest blog entries.">webmink&#039;s blog</a></li> <li class="comment_forbidden last"><span><a href="/web/20130123151348/http://opensource.org/user/login?destination=comment/reply/640%23comment-form">Log in</a> to post comments</span></li> </ul></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="region region-footer"> <div id="block-block-11" class="block block-block clearfix"> <div class="content"> <!-- Creative Commons License --><a rel="license" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"><img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width: 0" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348im_/http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/3.0/88x31.png"/></a><br/>Opensource.org site content is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/">Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License</a>.<!-- /Creative Commons License --> <!-- <rdf:RDF xmlns="http://web.resource.org/cc/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:rdfs="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#"> <Work rdf:about=""> <license rdf:resource="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/" /> </Work> <License rdf:about="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"><permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Reproduction"/><permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Distribution"/><requires rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Notice"/><requires rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Attribution"/><permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/DerivativeWorks"/></License></rdf:RDF> --> | <a href="/web/20130123151348/http://opensource.org/ToS">Terms of Service</a> </div> </div> <div id="block-block-7" class="block block-block clearfix"> <div class="content"> <script src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130123151348js_/http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> <!--//--><![CDATA[// ><!-- //--><!]]> </script><script type="text/javascript"> <!--//--><![CDATA[// ><!-- _uacct = "UA-3916956-1"; urchinTracker(); //--><!]]> </script> </div> </div> </div> </div></div></div></div> <!-- /.left-corner, /.right-corner, /#squeeze, /#center --> </div> <!-- /#container --> </div> <!-- /#wrapper --> </body> </html> <!-- FILE ARCHIVED ON 15:13:48 Jan 23, 2013 AND RETRIEVED FROM THE INTERNET ARCHIVE ON 04:33:46 Dec 13, 2024.
