The swirl logo was made out of a standard tool of some image
manipulation program (was it Corel Draw?), mapping a pre-defined
pattern over a swirl path.

I saw this exact same pattern mapped onto a another shape on the
packaging of an accounting software here (I can get scan of that in a
couple weeks if anybody is interested).

Unfortunately, the swirl is 0% original, hence it's not worth a lot as
a trademark.

Hopefully the official logo contains a bit more original work.
