The logo discussion
I've just fought my way through the logo discussion of the past few days. Here's my impression in a nutshell: - I don't like the logo either. - I don't spend all my time bitching about it. - I don't discuss it in violation of list charter on a mailing list intended for technical questions. - I don't understand why people who don't contribute to the project think they have a right to choose a project logo. - I used to answer many questions on this mailing list. Recently people have been hijacking it for purposes of penis size comparison. This doesn't make me feel very inclined to answer messages on the list, and it shows. So, people, how about sticking to the charter and discussing technical things on this list? If you want to discuss the logo, join the advocacy@ mailing list and discuss things there, where you're not annoying the majority of the subscribers. Then I and others like me might find more time to answer questions. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
