The current logo is not really eligible since we have no vector source
for it. It was a quick hack for AOO 3.4.0 using a composited bitmap.
But it doesn't work with the full range of uses we need the logo for.

Of course if anyone wants to make an vector version of the old logo,
using a free font, etc., then we can certainly consider it. That was
always a possibility, though it didn't seen to interest any designer.
