Non-technical announcements are not in the questions@ charter.

And it affects you in exactly the same way as thousands of other
choices made by core without your explicit involvement or approval.
Love the new feature and use it, or, don't use it. It's real simple.
Why don't the complainers on this subject seem to understand that
they are in no way compelled to adopt, deploy, endorse or enjoy the
project logo? Use Beastie if you like, there is absolutely no one
telling you that you can't (except, um, its copyright holder).

Quit using question@ as a beauty contest / "user rights" forum,
please. It *is* far OT, especially since there are other forums
specifically for such subject matter.
The logo issue is a horse that has been solidly beaten to death,
raised as a zombie, chased with torches and pitchforks, burnt to
crispiness, buried and then (surprise!) brought to life again this
week for another 1,001 rounds of beating and flaming. Tiresome, really.
No one is belittling the subject, only pointing out that it's both
OT and done with. The appearance of the logo on the Web site is not
a beginning, it's a finality. If you want to hack and burn the
undead, go play Oblivion. ;)

Wrong forum, years too late.
