All of these except 4 and 5 have the same feel - and need an explanation
to "Get it" I do not think that is what a logo is supposed to do.
Can we get more options?

Justin, is private@ list enough for the current discussion, or should we
extend to dev@ list?
Thanks

Hi,
This should really be discussed on the mailing list and the PMC decide
on the new logo. Most projects that do this put it up for a community
vote
but that’s not the only way to go, you may also want to open submissions
of
new logos to more than just one person.
To Justin, is there any Apache convention we need to follow? For
example, is "NuttX" or "Apache" text required in this logo?
There’s no convention you need to follow. INAL but some logos have
Apache in them, that gives you some trademark protections, if others
misuse
the. Nutt is already a trademark that seem fine to me and not needed. It
does however make it clear it’s an Apache project. Some logos also
incorporate the Apache Feather, again this is not a requirment. Most
newer
logos include a “TM” mark,
If you want to see the full range of logos take a look here [1]
Thanks,
Justin

Hello, Hans,
Thanks a lot for putting this effort into the NuttX logo. All of the
options look great. I think I like the simplest options 1-3 better than
the options with the printed circuit board theme.
I would like see something that makes the logo look more lively. I
always
like the Zephyr logo because it is light-hearted and free and just looks
like fun:

I have no idea what the significance of the kite is. I suppose because
it
is light and active? I am not saying we need a kite. I think we can
accomplish this your options too. Perhaps with some color? Blue and
white
have always been the colors of NuttX, but perhaps royal blue an gold:

Or maybe blue and orange"

But I have never been great with color selections.

Hi Greg, Justin and all,
Xiao Li (lixi...@xiaomi.com) developed some ideas for the new NuttX
logo. In the attached document, she laid out her thought process and
gave seven options of styles. To further the design process, she needs
your feedback to proceed.
To Greg, can you pick your favorite from the seven options? Do you
have other comments or suggestions?
To Justin, is there any Apache convention we need to follow? For
