I prefer to have open discussions in the official mailing list or JIRA since it is an open-community. It also helps track the discussions.
Fwiw, I am in favor of the red themed butterfly design because: 1. Knowing the origin of the name "Samza" (from Gregor Samsa character in "Metamorphosis"), it isn't very far-fetched in terms of relating stream processing to some kind of transformation. Butterfly is probably the prettiest insect to associate with "metamorphosis", without giving the impression of a bug :) 2. Red theme ties it with the current logo, although we can improvise on the gradients. 3. We can have a "mascot" , instead of an abstract symbol. One comment on the butterfly one - it seems to have only 1 antenna. -1 for the dots only logo. It feels like a color-blindness test :D -1 for the blue-based logo - it is just not relatable and it's an extreme change from the current one. I couldn't relate to the circular one. What are are trying to portray/imply here. That we are a bunch of disconnected links? Thanks!
