=== Fedora Branding Fonts ===
 
[[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] assembled<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/002726.html</ref> a wiki page<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design/Fedora_Branding_Fonts</ref> collecting info for the intended change in Fedora branding fonts for  character coverage "MgOpen Modata doesn't support accent marks very well. For example, I (Máirín) can't write my own name in MgOpen Modata" and move to consistence. After the weekly IRC meeting she announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/002775.html</ref> the team's decision "At our team meeting today we decided to trial Comfortaa as the headline/titling font and Droid Sans as the body text font" which is going to be tested.

=== Fedora 14 Concept Decision ===
 
With the deadline reached, at the weekly IRC meeting the Design Team decided on the graphic concept for Fedora 14<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_Artwork_Theme_Concepts</ref>, which was announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/002772.html</ref> by [[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] on the Design Team mailing list "I double- and triple-counted our votes today - each voter picked their top 3 concepts - and the winner is Kyle Baker's concept for Fedora 14 with 9 votes." The next step is turning this concept in an usable wallpaper image and including in into the Fedora 14 Alpha release to gather feedback.

FUDCon T-shirt

Emily Dirsh proposed[1] a T-shirt design for the Tempe FUDCon "It's inspired by the art of the Hohokam who once lived in the area" and after an initial warm receive[2] from Máirín Duffy "Wow that is **gorgeous**, I love it! I would love a shirt with that design in it!" she followed[3] with a couple of variations "Ooh, I love the idea of a navy shirt! Yeah, the advantage to a single-color design is it's very easy to adjust the color." Jef van Schendel also proposed[4] a few remixes "Here's a few quick and dirty stabs at a dark shirt version".

Design Team Blog

Máirín Duffy announced[1] a new communication channel for the team "Thanks to Sijis we now have a team blog!! (Yay!!)" and she invited authors to join "Some members of the design team we couldn't add to the blog because their accounts weren't in the Fedora blogs system. If you'd like to be added, please log in to Fedora blogs to create your account, and let me know you've done it so I can request your account be added."
