I agree, although I think it's because the new version uses less vibrant 
colours than the current; it could gain a lot of 'life' from upping the 
saturation and putting some texture back into the flower centre.  I very 
much dislike the red one; almost unrecognisable as the flower.

Can we have a swear-box for whenever someone says "please volunteer don't 
donate your time to X because it's not-broken-so-doesn't-need-fixing"?? 
While I'd say having the logo in vector form is very desirable, even if it 
weren't that's still no reason to try to dissuade someone if they think they 
can improve something.  By all means argue that their modifications are 
*not* improvements (currently, I agree with you, although I think it has 
potential); but even if you think they're wasting their time, it's entirely 
theirs to waste.
