Thanks!
As suggested, I'm asking for Lazy Consensus on the adoption of file
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/AOO4/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_unofficial_mseidel_fixed_TM.svg
as the official vector file for the Apache OpenOffice logo (see explanation
below).
If after 72 hours there are no objections, the file will be renamed
appropriately and used as the official vector file.
Sorry, if I am late to this discussion...
My graphic was never meant to replace the official one.
It was more or less a proof of concept and it does not respect the
"white" space intentionally designed by Chris Rottensteiner.
See:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/AOO4/ChrisR_Notes.txt
My suggestion would rather be to "fix" the existing graphic by only
converting the TM to paths.
+1 for fixing the original one, instead of creating just a new graphic.

Hi all
I don't know what is the appropriate procedure but would like to request a vote
for the adoption of a corrected Apache OpenOffice logo vector file.
Most of you are aware that the current logo was created by Chris Rottensteiner .
Unfortunately all of the logos in vector format archived in the Apache
OpenOffice (or at least all that I could find) left by ChrisR
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/AOO4/ ) have the same
problem: the TM part is a text object.
This means that editing or viewing the SVG only looks as the author expected
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/AOO4/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_ChrisR_selected_2013-06_with_4.pdf)
it if the user's computer has font Source Sans Pro Light installed.
An easy way to see this is to click on the AOO logo at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apache_OpenOffice_logo_and_wordmark_(2014).svg
After clicking on the expected logo as PNG you will open the actual SVG which
will be showing a wrong TM
Because of this small defect, there is no perfect SVG that can be used as
Apache OpenOffice's official logo, and that is the reason why the current
official logo available to Apache is a PDF
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/project-logos/originals/
Luckily user Matthias Seidel has fixed this by converting the TM part to paths
(as ChrisR did for the rest of the text)
This does NOT change the artwork in any way. It just guarantees that the vector
logo looks the same under any OS regardless of the fonts installed.
TL:DR
Therefore I would like to propose a vote to approve file
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/AOO4/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_unofficial_mseidel_fixed_TM.svg
as the Apache OpenOffice official vector logo file
Best regards,
Pedro
