Right, I think this is a great idea - if we can get an officially 
sanctioned or whatever outline version of the logomark in the logo 
guidelines then there will be one version rather than leaving it up to 
people create them which will inevitably result in different variations. 
(There are a lot of ways you can do a white outline. Thickness, clear to 
blurred outline, with a drop shadow incolved, etc.) and we want the logo 
to be consistent.

I think we need this too. If folks would like to mock some up, I can 
send them along in a proposal and we can see if we can get them 
integrated into the guidelines as well.

Good ideas! :) Thanks Nicolas.
