It's important to understand that there's only 1 or 2 of the core members that have sticks up their ass about this issue. The rest of them don't understand why it's necessary to waste time or labor on this issue. The question then becomes if your a core member, are you going to bother to spend time on a logo change or not? If the 1 or 2 core members come up with a different logo, the rest of core probably isn't going to expend effort on changing the logo, and all the work to do this will rest on the shoulders of the 1 or 2 malcontents. What I think is going to end up happening if they do get a decent logo out of this contest, is that ultimately your going to see the new logo used in a few places here and there on the Internet, and your going to see beastie used at most other places. It will simply present more confusion to non-FreeBSD users if it does anything at all. Most likely it will do nothing at all, in the same way that GM for example uses multiple brands for the same iron.
