Re: Website status - url to picture

[Roman Stumm]

Do not use my first photo of the green beans! I just googled it to 
illustrate the idea.
If we decide to use a photo of real green beans, it should not be a 
problem to buy beans some in a supermarket nearby and take a photo, so 
we do not have copyright problems.

I like the "V" as green-beans into BVal. Idea.
I can imagine that a real photo is clearer and easier to realize than a 
comic-style version of the green beans.

(Why green beans? looks like a checkmark of a successful validation. 
Looks fresh and fits to the word "BVal".)

Maybe someone likes to send some logo-proposals around (e.g. as links to 
a Jira issue)..

Bye,
Roman

Where did these beans come from?  Interesting as these are not coffee
beans as we usually see in the Java ecosystem.

WRT Simo's "cartoonized" comment:  how to cartoonize this type of bean
and still have it be recognizable?

Btw, please use a free font or modify it a bit. Don't like to get legal 
problems because of a non-free font ;)
