 Which is why I thought a two-armed spiral, based on a real galaxy, 
 would be appropriate.  Clearly different from Debian's spiral, anyway.

I submitted this logo last night.  It's not a 'real' galaxy but points in that 
direction.  It solves the visual limitation of spiral + some text tacked on 
which just wasn't working IMO:

This is a VERY rough concept - almost pencil on paper - that attempts to merge 
Gravis' negative spiral with the font of the logo. It also echoes the yin/yang 
motif of an early logo submission and the infinity symbol.   Using just the 
swirl on the LH or RH side is also a possibility.  The font is Paprika ( 
http://www.1001freefonts.com/paprika.font ) which has a Public domain, GPL, OFL 
license.

If you don't like the colors - favs of mine - just use your imagination.  ;)  
It was late, I was tired.  And I just wanted to get something on 'paper'.

I'm hoping that someone with serious Inkscape skills (that's not me) will jump 
in to take this idea to the next level.

Cheers!
