Hi,
For Boost.STM Justin created a variation of the offical log
Toward Boost STM http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/stm/boost.png
Making a variation of a logo doesn't requires too much graphical abilities. Maybe "Toward Boost XXX" could be considerd for libraries working towards an accepted Boost library.
When I see the docs on the sandbox the "Toward Boost XXX" appears. If I move the docs to the Boost repository the Official Boost logo appears.
"Toward" means that the library is on the move to get proposed (accepted) to Boost eventually, and this is not always the case. But I like the idea of providing a bootstrap of a library-specific logo.
This is exactly the sens I find in Toward, a library that is working on a proposal for review and at the end expect to be accepted in Boost. Libraries that don't pretend this should use a "Powered by" logo, as no affiliation to Boost is in the mind of the authors. IMO it is useful to distinguish these libraries, be using a specific logo or via a page like the Libraies Under Construction. Vicente
