The IETF logo has a goldenrod-colored network path in it--how about that?
Or that pay lavender?

I would personally prefer this to be "Automatic Certificate Management
Environment (ACME), IETF Version One".  That's clear about where we are and
let's us finesse the question of what version or version there were prior

multiple versions of the non-IETF version, given the evolution which has
occurred.
