[jdf-dev] Looking for a (visual) metaphor

[Jonathan Fuerth]

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. (ha, ha, ha.. OK, I'll stop now.)

All,

We need a visual metaphor that quickly conveys to people that an example is:

* official, and something we will stand by, answer questions on, support in a product (e.g. TicketMonster)
* something that we plan to add to as an official example later on (e.g. jbossworld keynote 2012)
* something that is really interesting, but is unlikely to be official (e.g. Vineet's example)

We had thought about using ski run colours (green circle, blue square, black diamond) to indicate the level, but they really refer more to difficulty than to recommendation. Anyone got any good ideas?

Pete
