Veto because no community input was sought during any of the review phases. Sorry. I will continue to use the penguin for all contest entries and the pending magazine articles until we have a design which had community review during the design process.
ah. well. Speaking as the person who o tried for 12 months to get community input on the name and logo, and o who then went to a small group in search of input, and o who tried to design a voting mechanism and o again requested input, and o got nothing from anyone!, and o who greatly appreciates your contributions to coreboot,
I am very sorry you feel this way!
I have passed this logo by a great many NON-coreboot, NON-computer types. They loved it, without exception. That said, we could consider community input and a vote and I feel pretty strongly that the new logo would win such a vote :-)
We need to make some progress here. I love the new logo, personally, but more important, it's time to move on on the name change and logo. We tried and failed for one full year to get a new logo. This was the best we were able to get. But, I think it's really, really good.
Let's get a decision on this. Do we vote?
We can vote....but so far there is only one person that doesn't like it. And I would say so far he is out voted :-)
