It's not you, it's me :o). All - contributions to the website dconf.org are gladly welcome. This is a place when a little work can have a big and immediate impact. If half of the energy devoted to just bickering in this group would be put to good use, we could move mountains. Please, we need your work. Thanks. Andrei

I have counted the PyCon websites and indeed more than half of them have _some_ reference to the Python logo, either in form or colour. http://pyconuk.org/ http://www.pycon.kr/2014/ What I could do is add two circles like the D logo.

Something recognizable, but also something that represent this specific DConf.
