I have chatted with Pascal about this on IRC. I think if we want to
change the logo we should have a proper design competition. I like the
current logo, but I am not overly attached to it, but I do like it more
than Pascal's version.

I think it would be good if Pascal could check the ODF file into SVN.
People can then use tracked changes to propose edits. The more
hands/eyes on this the better.

It does avoid a call to the webserver, but the index.php files are
deprecated in trunk. The new menu system allows you to call the
menuaction directly. In the past some modules have had a lot of code in
index.php which duplicated other ui code, this is something we should be
avoiding. I think this can stay as it is.

You should only reference it.

This is right.
Both of these classes should be treated as singletons. Only one
instance should exist. If you need to clone the db or template objects
you are probably doing something wrong.
For example getting the name of a category belongs in business logic,
not storage, as the business logic layer's role is to combine data from
multiple places.
I am working through the current version of the document and will try to
post a detailed review shortly. Keep up the good work.
Cheers
