Project Name

Before we can develop the full brand concept for this new project, we need finalize a new name that also reflects the elements listed below (particularly “Perception” and “Magnetic Idea”).

Parameters:

  • No acronyms
  • Nothing “Open”
  • Nothing that’s a literal description of the work
  • Evocative, simple, memorable

Theme Thought Starters:

  • Historical
  • Mythical
  • Symbolic
  • Team Sports (Who do you play for?)
  • Water Theme (and/or water deities): Ties into the traditional OPNFV releases using rivers, also meant to symbolize strength via flexibility / adaptability.

Bruce Lee Quote: “Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot.”

List of Deities Here:

  • Goddess Anuket: Anuket was the ancient Egyptian goddess of the cataracts of the Nile and Lower Nubia in general, worshipped especially at Elephantine near the First Cataract. Symbols: Bow, arrows, gazelle, ostrich feather
  • Hapi: God of the annual flooding of the Nile (By harnessing the floodwaters, Egyptians were able to take something chaotic and tame it and build a civilization from it) 
  • Goddess: Janus: Shows 2 entities as one.
  • Grannus: Celtic deity associated with thermal springs and spas, associated with the concept of gleaming or shining
  • Ascionna: Gallo-Roman water goddess, associated with the Orleans region of France
  • Lir: Irish/Welsh god of the sea
  • Sequana: Goddess of the River Seine, healer of sickness
  • Sirona: Celtic goddess associated with healing springs 
  • Danu: Celtic Mother of the gods, associated with streams and flowing water
  • ….
  • ….

Butterfly Theme: Ties into transformational narrative of OPNFV. Stages: Egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, butterfly.

  • The name "chrysalis" might work? Each release could be a new butterfly species. 
  • We could also use a Latin name for a butterfly species as the project name
    • Asiona (a genus of moths)

Team Sports

  • Harpastum: ancient ball game played in the Roman Empire
  • Phaininda: Greek version of the above
  • Cuju or T'su-chu – ancient Chinese game, though to be the earliest version of football
  • Pokolpok – Ancient Meso American ballgame, similar to racquetball

Purpose / Background

(Initial Draft Positioning Statement)

The coming together of CNTT/OPNFV is a merger of equals and a natural result of the close working relationship between these communities over the past 2 years. The official merger is beneficial to both as well the industry at large. As a result, the new project will:

  • Provide a sustainable home for CNTT and a fulcrum for cloud native telecom evolution
  • Ensure transparency and critical alignment and between the architecture and engineering work of CNTT and OPNFV
  • Enhance conformance, compliance, and verification efforts (OVP)
  • Become the “center of gravity” for industry collaboration and integration and a single entity for allocating technical resources

GSMA will remain a close partner and publish the organization’s reference models. The merged entity will launch in the LFN networking umbrella in January 2021. We welcome you to join this open initiative and enable broad adoption of open source technologies.

Target Date

Full launch planned for January 2021.

Creative Considerations & Distribution

The creative elements need to be flexible. The logo needs to be visible in single and multiple colors and scale so that it works at very small sizes. It will also be reproduced for printing and the web. 

Creative Deliverables

  • Print-Ready Logo Artwork Files: AI and EPS
  • Screen-Optimized Logo Artwork Files: JPEG, PNG
  • Logo Usage Guidelines: PDF
  • PowerPoint Template: PPTX
  • Any Font Licenses and Files Needed









  • No labels
