imacat, Your comments are so professional! :-) Personally I like this logo design more comparing to other candidates in wiki<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.x+-+Logo+Explorations>. Thanks Michael! While we may also want to update the app icon design as the next step for consistent L&F...
