Comment:

 There's certainly no room for branding on the Home screen; it simply isn't
 afforded by the design of the Sugar UI, which doesn't have the usual
 chrome that normal desktops have.  However, I think we could find a place
 for it during boot, and also in the "About this XO" module of the control
 panel, where other technical and license details are shown.

 I also have contention with showing the logo in color, as color has a
 privileged place in the Sugar UI, and is particularly important in the
 boot up sequence.  I notice that they do offer an all-black version of the
 logo.  My initial thought was to use a strictly typographic treatment, but
 perhaps we can negotiate to render their provided logo in an a 50% gray.
 (We could show it in color in the settings, perhaps.)

 I also see Greg D. on the contact list. Perhaps I (or a group of us) could
 briefly chat about the possibilities while he's here for the week.
