All noted/checked.
Is there a brainstorming document with inspiration/ideas? Or does
everyone do this for themselves.

That was intended. The idea is to give the header a very simple,
straightforward look. We could actually just use a "home" icon for
Home, but we thought the GNOME roundel would look better. Not a big
deal, but that's definitely something we could discuss in the future.
In this page <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/Artwork/Graphics>,
you can see we have lots of pictograms that represent several concepts
that can be used (and have been used) in different places.
Our branding is pretty much that: the logo (the full logo, i.e, the
word ubuntuGNOME + the roundel) and versatile pictograms. /This might
be further in the future, of course./
PS. There's a branding guidelines on the work, but we are waiting to
have a proper logo (we are misusing the GNOME foot, as their trademark
states) to release a first version. A preview of the guidelines can be
found here <http://cl.ly/3x1L2G3u2D0a>.
Cheers.

Yup, the header, because of the colour and shape of the icons,
since the concept features the same colour tone. There should be a
clear distinction.

Are you refering to the header? (Home, Download, Join, etc.) If
so, that's no problem at all. Ali (from his experience in
Lubuntu) made the header into a separate page and every page
inherits the header itself from that page. We modify the header
[1] and every page is changed automatically.
I personally think the problem would only be the adoption of the
logo by the users and bloggers (man, there are still websites
that use the old Ubuntu logo [2] while making Ubuntu-related
articles), but that's an issue we just can't avoid (in fact this
even happens with big corporations, so not big deal).
Thanks for the feedback, Patrik.

It's really unique. What I see as a potentially minor issue
is the blending on various pages like the Wiki page
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/Artwork> with the
topmost icons, but that I believe can be remedied.

Hey guys,
The logo redesign is something we have had in
our basket of "/things to do in the future/" for
a while.
The design approach has been very difficult, as
we have to come up with something that says
reminds of GNOME but doesn't say literally
"GNOME" (I assume you are all aware of the
trademark problem we've been causing).
The main problem here is that the GNOME foot is
perfect, I really mean it. Any kind of
anthropomorphic foot design looks just like a
fan-made version of the GNOME logo. So, I
thought *why an anthropomorphic foot? Let's play
with the /gnome /metaphor.
*
I've tried several iterations of gnomes and
beards and stuff; they looked horrible, hehehe.
Eventually I said, what the hell, let's combine
both ideas: a foot that uses a a beard-like
shape as a the foot itself. *Please, have a kind
look at this:* http://cl.ly/image/253V2f1r121s
It's far from perfect, but I think it's a good
start, as it has some good points:
* It's not a GNOME logo rip-off.
* It plays with the gnome idea.
* It looks like a paw, which is cool in the
Ubuntu world, as every cycle is represented
with a new animal.
Please, let me know what you think guys.
PS. /If everything goes according to the plan we
will have: new logo, new website, and new
ubiquity this cycle./
Best regards,
Alfredo.
