Hello,

A few individuals have recently expressed their desire to help create a Haiku flyer that could be handed out at trade shows and conferences. I am creating this thread to support this initiative.

As a start point, here you can find a very simple flyer that we created for the last SCaLE 5x conference:

Here is a Haiku color palette for reference (sorry, not CMYK equivalents yet):

Here are a few simple guidelines:

* Keep the design clean and simple
* Use design scalable to both Letter and A4 size
* Use official artwork (from the Haiku repository)
* Keep the content in line with our message (see About pages in the website)
* Target audience is developers only. Don't target users.
* Provide PDF to print on desktop color printer

Please, be prepared to receive both positive and negative feedback, and note that the work will be subject to review by the admin group.

*** File Format ***
We will try to have the local communities translate the flyer to their languages, so a standard native file format is preferred (perhaps EPS or ODT).

I think I am not leaving anything out, but if you notice that I have missed something or if you have any questions, please leave a comment here.

So, go ahead, start working on your mockups! :)
