Ah OK.

I wonder why we just didn't put that in commons skin?

I think originally we used to update the name of the ApacheCon logo in
the CSS. But then we changed the logo to a generic name
(current-event-125x125.png) and so we just have to replace the image
and not change the CSS.

If thats the case then it could go in commons-skin. However if we
wanted to change the CSS, then if its in commons-skin it needs a skin
& parent pom release - wheras commons-site its just a commit and
re-deploy.

Sorry for thinking out loud, I think I agree with you.
