I don't think we want to *rate* examples, we just want to indicate their degree of affiliation with jdf.

I'll see if I can do some mockups. On 10 Jul 2012, at 14:50, Jonathan Fuerth wrote: A gold starburst "Official Supported JBoss Demo" would convey this idea to me. Kind of like the Nintendo Seal of Quality. As for the lesser-supported scenarios, I'm not sure we need a mark for that. The absence of the official seal might be enough. Or, if the supported demos get an Official Seal, maybe the in-the-works demos could get the industrious Soon-to-be-official Beaver of Quality, and the unsupported demos could get the completely unofficial Otter of Quality.

Anyone got any good ideas?
