Thanks for this, James! Over at ComDev, I think we are going to chance this and assume that the new version has lazy consensus - that is, we're going to print it, and well, if it doesn't get consensus, then we'll just make a fancy sticker wall somewhere :D.
I've put the proposed logos into the logo database as well (this can be reverted at any time, this was primarily because the DB aids in offering different asset formats), so that you can pick the rendered objects for the web site repo if/when you wish to update that - you can find the new assets, in both the light and dark version (and with or without the text) at: http://www.apache.org/logos/#fineract I find that the dark version (versions 2+3 on the logo site) works best for your web site currently, whereas the light version is better for stickers and such. Hope this helps, and thanks for championing the consensus! With regards, Daniel. On 2019/01/19 15:13:45, James Dailey <jamespdai...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Daniel - > > Thanks for sharing.
