As is the way of these things, it took a little longer to get v5.2.0 ready for release, but now I think we’re ready to run the voting part of the competition, and close the competition to new submissions.
Thank you to everyone who has entered. The results are impressive, and the discussion here has been interesting, and I hope will bear fruit in other projects in the future. There are currently 18 entries listed at https://tw-logo-contest.tiddlyhost.com <https://tw-logo-contest.tiddlyhost.com/>, a lot more than we’ve had before. In some cases we’ve got some very similar variants which risks splitting the vote for a design. So, unless anybody has a better suggestion, I will choose my preferred variant of each design as I prepare the voting form.
