[Clipart] Regarding the possibility of hosting a contest

[Tobias Jakobs]

Hi,

I 100% agree with Nicu and think we should make a logo contest.
Ivo can you tell us more about Spread Open Media? I think it would be 
good, if the SVG format can be part of it. Will it be more a PR project, or 
will you even create websites where you can share content?

Regards,
Tobias
