Is there any way we can get our Avalon graphics in a SVG format so that
we can generate PDF documentation with graphics that actually look pretty?
GIFs don't tend to scale very well.

Also, while I appreciate the hard work that went into our logos, I think
I can offer a couple of suggestions that would make them even better.

The first thing you notice is the stark shallow-chromatic-ness of the logo.
In other words, it looks as if it were designed solely for monochrome printers.
This is in distinct contrast to the previous logo that we had.  It was nice
looking, colorful, and it printed well.

I think that with the subtle use of shadows we can achieve this again--still
using our current design.  Check out the logos of some of the other Jakarta
packages (I enclosed what I think are the best of the crop).  All of them
have a certain level of dimension.  Whether the dimension is created by
color variations (i.e. tomcat), or by shadows (i.e. jetspeed) they all lend
a visual interest that our logo doesn't grab.

I guess I am jumping on this bandwagon now that I am in publication mode,
and I want our project to be well presented.
