Thanks Wayne and Jay, You assume correctly that the project team, in this case I, created the logo. The intention was to make associations to both TeX and Eclipse – it appears I was successful. I think the only remaining issue is to make sure it does not infringe on the TeX trademark if such a thing exists, and if not I’d like to have approval from the TeX project team.
