  Presents: All 7 except Marc (excuse)
  
  Topics:
  
  Revise and refine the requirements according to the 59 designs we already have (and don't like)
  
  Send the revised requirements to the four finalists and ask them to re-submit a logo
  
  If a suitable logo is received and selected by the committee then put it to the full collaboration for a graded vote (5 intervals) - values less than the mean are counted negative, so logo should be endorsed rather than simply the best of the worst. (last time "vote blanche" was hardly chosen despite a number of dissenters).
  
  General Guidelines
  
  "G" should be at the same level as "4". Message to pass: Geant4 is the name not Geant Version 4
  
  Number 56 is a way to go
  
  Transparent background is fine/better than white. With a box if the background is full
  
  G4 logo should not look the same as others of our institutionals logos (Ex SLAC? G4 AI...)
  
  Color Scheme:
  
      2/3 colors ? Two many colors are confusing
  
      Finalists :
  
          1 - Stronger colours, tracks are a bit random and invisible on Geant4 one, more 4 to level of rest of text and same size, grey background. Some kind of detector behind. Police a bit too small. Tracks are confusing
  
          2 - Green/blue/brown green is too light, spiral has not link to Geant4 / simulation. Police is fine. Tracks are fine
  
          3 - Some kind of detector behind, fragmented shape will not show up well when small. Spacing on each caracters is a bit too much. Police is a bit square. Tracks are too confusing
  
          4 - No meaning for the geometrical shape, bland colour scheme. Small logo is illisible

  Banner size
  
      - Prefer the #56 sizing
  
      - Number 4 finalist is too much square
  
      - compatability with a favicon format
  
  Slogan
  
      Geometry and tracking ? - no
  
      Radiation simulation toolkit ?
  
      Simulating Reality?
  
      A simulation toolkit ? <=
  
      Simulating Radiations ? - Radiation Simulation or no "s" Radiation(s) simulated ?
  
  - Regroup requierements
  
  - Send the requirements
  
  - Final proposal : Skype meeting with them
  
  Send a mail on finalists on 10th April
  
          Ask the finalists if they want to revise there logo according to your requirements. 4 finalists + a few others (number 56)
