Ok If there are no objections from anyone I think it would be good to get started on this, even if we don't use the logo until 2.0 it would be good to have it before the 2.0 release so we can redesign material around it e.g website colors, press material. <div>
<br></div><div>I'm going to draft up a blog post to see if we can pull some donations from people. Anita and Tim if could do the same that would be good.<div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; white-space: nowrap; background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245); ">@Paolo: What is the best way to collect money for just this kind project, if people are donating for this then it would be good that they know the money is getting used</span></div>
