In practice that turned out to not be a good idea. When I did the new logos a few years back I tried having the pngs auto-generated at build time. The Inkscape SVG -> bitmap rendering was not very good quality wrt its anti-aliasing. Rendering them in GIMP gave far better results. I still think we should convert the fig to svg though, despite not using them in the build procss.
