Instead, we should try to channel what we currently have into a appealing and recognizable brand. Even if that means slightly touching up the logo to adapt some of the elements that might have been hip a while ago, but would seem rather quaint in a current design.
Adding serifs is really not the right thing to do. Usually what happens during logo redesign is that they simplify the visual design to make the recognizable visual traits stand out more. The most famous example is probably Nike, but you can only go that far after having achieved a strong brand…
I completely agree that this can't be a matter of somebody toying around with Inkscape a bit (no offense!),
Good, because what happens when you remove the "horizon line shine" is that the logo becomes graphically unbalanced and will need tweaking.
I wish the dots were circles and not ellipses, though.
