Hi Chris,

Some of the new logos look nice. But personally I have some problems:

The lights on the "outer cube" are different from the "inner cube". Thus it does not really fit. Too me, it looks like a big border, folded the other way. (For the inner cube left front is light, and for the outer right front is light)

Moving the eye away, it becomes hard to recognize the inner part being a cube. The outer "border" now looks more like a hexagon. Is this by intention?

To me, the only "real" cubes are the one from the existing logo and the grey one.

What is the intention of the logo? Fitting things together? If this is symbolized by a cube, than I vote for the existing logo. If it shall be symbolized by "cube in cube", I propose to synchronize the light to come from the same direction for both cubes. Or maybe we create a cube built up by a jigsaw (puzzle)? Than the elements really need to fit together. Just some thoughts...

Thx Matthias,

good point. I didn't know how to start so I set this first to create a voting. 
Of course all repesents (from me) are very not final, details are mising like 
fonts, the cubes are not looking well etc. But those are first drafts from the 
designer. He won't dive into deep to create a detailed logo if no one wants a 
new one. So thats why we decided to created drafts. Those are not final, only 
to get an idea what could be possible.

I added 2 more drafts, changed by myself with Apache on top of it and the 
feather as mentioned. So if others want to contribute logos sure, you can. But 
as another member said, we should not have to many. We should really focus on 
that what we have otherwise we have to much to decide. I think the way is clear 
in which direction it should go.

How you want to open a discuss? Via mailinlists? It is a mess for voting too. 
We should live talk about it if it is possible, maybe next year in january.

So ok we can cancel the vote for now and bring it back later. Now we can catch 
feedback.


Regards

Chris

Yes a feather and apache would be ok for me (in my opinion if it is
needed). Apache would be enough I think.
Instead of the IDE it could be the feather.
sorry - but this is nuts. Voting at this point is useless. Please:

a) Gather all options
b) Open a discuss and do refinement
c) Ask for votes on the final set

Currently a/b/c are happily interleaved. So people who decide to vote,
vote on unfinished entryset. People that might want to comment on the
logos itself might be held back by ongoing votes. The same goes for
others proposing new variants.

Is there a reason for this haste?

Greetings

Matthias
