Well, I don't like it. First off, I don't get it. At a glance, I have no
idea what it's trying to convey or why there is so much text.

Secondly, I think it is imperative for a logo design to offer a shortened
square aspect, e.g. for an icon. The Q in QGIS obviously lends itself to
this, and IMO works well for it; so I think a design that leverages that
single character will be more versatile, than say one that only works well
for a web site header.

Regards,

Larry
