        Around 2009, the rendition script was at a very rustic state
88dd17
        where only slide images could be produced, so it was
88dd17
        redesigned to extend the image production to other areas,
88dd17
        different from slide images.  In this configuration, one SVG
88dd17
        file was used as input to produce a translated instance of it
88dd17
        which, in turn, was used to produce one translated PNG image
88dd17
        as output. The SVG translated instance was created through SED
88dd17
        replacement commands. The translated PNG image was created
88dd17
        from the SVG translated instance using Inkscape command-line
88dd17
        interface.

        The repository directory structure was prepared to receive the
88dd17
        rendition script using design templates and translation files
88dd17
        in the same location. There was one directory structure for
88dd17
        each artwork that needed to be produced. In this
88dd17
        configuration, if you would want to produce the same artwork
88dd17
        with a different visual style or structure, it was needed to
88dd17
        create a new directory structure for it because both the image
88dd17
        structure and the image visual style were together in the
88dd17
        design template.

        The rendition script was moved to a common place and linked
88dd17
        from different directory structures. There was no need to have
88dd17
        the same code in different directory structures if it could be
88dd17
        in just one place and then be linked from different locations.

        Corporate identity concepts began to be considered. As
88dd17
        referece, it was used the book "Corporate Identity" by Wally
88dd17
        Olins (1989) and 
88dd17
        url="http://en.wikipedia.org/Corporate_identity">Wikipedia</ulink>
88dd17
        related links. This way, the rendition script main's goal
88dd17
        becomes to: <emphasis>automate the production process of a
88dd17
        monolithic corporate visual identity structure, based on the
88dd17
        mission and the release schema of The CentOS
88dd17
        Project</emphasis>.

        The repository directory structures began to be documented by
88dd17
        mean of flat text files. Later, documentation in flat text
750966
        files was moved onto LaTeX format and this way &TCARUG; was
750966
        initiated.
