OK. Please note that this is handwritten SVG and using an editor may cause it to lose structure.
Also, the rendering depends on the exact metrics of the Futura font (and, for all I know, the details of the SVG renderer); it would be more robust to embed the characters as paths into the SVG but I don't have tools handy to do that. I expect Inkscape does, though; if you do that and send me the results I'll incorporate them.

As for naming, we have a major problem that "Tahoe" is not searchable/ unique enough to serve as the official name. Try your favorite search engine and search for "Tahoe". I just browsed through the first eighteen pages of the google search results for "Tahoe" and I finally found something that wasn't the lake in California/Nevada: it was this open source software project: http://tahoe.ca.sandia.gov .
Good point. I suggest, however, that you make sure to be consistent about "Tahoe-LAFS" vs. "TahoeLAFS". Both forms will work fine as a Google search term, but the former has more results, and also has the advantage that searchers for "Tahoe LAFS" will find it.
