Hi Paul,

As Bertrand, I like the enhanced original logo (the second) the best.
Also the integration of the µ looks good to me (though I would rotate
counter-clockwise instead of clockwise, probably). In addition, I think
we should go with a single color, either the left one (my favorite) or
the right one. The differentiator between Sling and µsling is just the
µ.

>From your original proposal I also liked the third one with
"backslashed-zero" left of the name. Refining this one by making it seem
less "bulky" - maybe with a contrasting border, see the Apache Felix
Logo [1] - and "underlyning" the whole thing with the Apache feather
would be interesting.

Regards
Felix
