I was under the impression that new logos needed to go through the CQ
process? We had to do that for the new ICE logo that is on its webpage.
I could be wrong, but the main thing that we care about is that there is
a paper trail to support that the logo was provided to the project under
the terms of that project's license(s).
There are two things at play here:
1. Document that the new logo is to be associated with the project's
trademark. That pulls it under the protection of the Eclipse
Trademark Guidelines.
2. Document that the copyright of the bits that make up the logo have
been provided under the correct open source license(s).
We may need to improve our documentation around this....

FWIW, I don't think these meets the bar of being a derivative. But a
do share Wayne's concern about possibly infringing TeX's mark.

In general, no approval is required for a project logo.
Board of Directors approval is required, however, for logos that
incorporate the Eclipse Logo, or otherwise derive from it [1]. I'm
not quite sure whether or not this logo can be considered
derivative; I'm thinking that the use of similar colours is just
evocative of it. I'll leave it to you to make the call.
Please make sure that the logo isn't violating anybody else's
trademark usage guidelines. Does TeX have any restrictions on how
their logo can be used?
HTH,

Hi,
I’ve been searching and reading the Project Handbook for
information on the proper procedure to have a project logo
approved, but could not find anything of use. We have created a
logo[1] for Eclipse TeXlipse that we would like to have approved.
