It focuses on testing, moderation and privacy. I recently got a grant from NLnet to work on it.
The design work would consist in creating a logo (vectorised) for the project to use.
I am not much of a design person and I’m not sure what directions to set, feel free to ask more questions and propose ideas yourself.</description><content:encoded>&lt;div style="margin-bottom:1.5em;padding:1em;background:#f8f9fa;border-radius:8px;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Organization:&lt;/strong&gt; Muchrooms&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Status:&lt;/strong&gt; searching&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Compensation:&lt;/strong&gt; paid&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Role:&lt;/strong&gt; Logo design&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Muchrooms is a new(ish) project, it is a Jabber/XMPP group chat implementation in Rust.

&lt;p&gt;Jabber/XMPP is a standard communication protocol. It features at its core federation and extensibility. It would be nice for this to be reflected in the work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have in mind either various islands of mushrooms linked together somehow.
Or, some variant of the XMPP logo overrun by mycelium.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;rsquo;t want the logo to look too realistic visually (as in, close to a photograph).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even though I do have a grand for working on the project, I regret not to have factored this in, and this is the little I can spare with nonexistent salary otherwise.&lt;/p&gt;
