The XO icon in modified form is used on Sugarizer. It appears elsewhere on other current versions of Sugar. It is a well known icon and, as such, carries considerable intrinsic value.
If some people want to completely divorce themselves from all the hard work of their predecessors and the good will they have built up, perhaps it would be better for them to leave Sugar Labs entirely and strike out on their own.

Do you think Sugar Labs should give up its trademark? Is your goal to undermine Sugar Labs and/or OLPC?
