Corporate Communication
&TCP; corporate communication is focused on the effective
propagation of corporate messages. Propagation of corporate
messages is closely related to the media the organization uses
as vehicle to distribute its corporate messages.
&TCP; corporate communication takes place through the
following visual manifestations:
&TCD;
This visual manifestation communicates its existence
through software packages. There are packages that make a
remarkable use of images, packages that make a moderate
use of images, and packages that don't use images at all.
This visual manifestation is focused on providing &TCP;
images required by software packages that do use images in
a remarkable way, specially those holding the upstream
brand (e.g., anaconda,
grub, syslinux,
gdm, kdebase).
The Community Enterprise Operating System itself
(communicates the essense of &TCP; existence.).
Release Schema (Lifetime) and all the stuff related (e.g.,
Release Notes, Documentation, Erratas, etc.).
&TCW;
This visual manifestation communicates its existence
through web applications. These web applications are free
software and come from different providers which
distribute their work with predefined visual styles.
Frequently, these predefined visual styles have no visual
relation among themselves and introduce some visual
contraditions when they all are put together. Removing
these visual contraditions is object of work for this
visual manifestation.
The CentOS Chat.
The CentOS Mailing Lists.
The CentOS Forums.
The CentOS Wiki.
Special Interest Groups (SIGs).
Social Events, Interviews, Conferences, etc.
The extensive network of mirrors available for downloading
ISO files as well as RPMs and SRPMs used to build them up
in different architectures.
&TCS;
This visual manifestation communicates its existence
through production of industrial objects carrying &TCBRAND;.
These branded objects are directed to be distributed on
social events and/or shops. They provide a way of
promotion and commercialization that may help to reduce
&TCP; expenses (e.g., electrical power, hosting, servers,
full-time-developers, etc.), in a similar way as donations
may do.
Stationery (e.g., Posters, Stickers, CD Lables and Sleeves).
Clothes (e.g., Shirts, T-shirts, Pullovers, Caps).
Installation media (e.g., CDs, DVD, Pendrives).
