Firstly, a new logo is not something you roll out on its own, it's part of a new 'corporate identity' and it's not something you just implement by accepting a pull request. Secondly, there's tons of derived products that are sitting there looking dated all of a sudden; not only national or sub-project web sites, also printed materials. It seems very amateurish to have different logo versions sitting around in different parts of the project. All in all I believe some advance notice would have been a good idea. Mind you, I'm not even talking about a community voting process - I'm not in favor of that in this case at all. -- Martijn van Exel http://about.me/mvexel
