@Mike ... thank you for your quick response! Sure it looks very familiar ... but this is on purpose ... maybe just changing the colors could make it different and will remove these trademark/copyright issues ... but I have to stop here, because, I am not a designer ;)
More important was the text I have written: 'For me, the new Flex logo should send a promising sign to all those companies who have lost money, and, to all Flex developers who got fired during the last couple of weeks. "Stability over Philosophy" should be the credo of this new logo, and, the message of the new Apache Flex logo should be clear and simple: "Flex is still Flex, and, now even better managed by Apache"' When moving dramatically far away from the original logo design could lead to the impression that Apache Flex is something completely different in the hands of Apache ... and managers and investor, who might have no idea about the internals of Flex and just see the logo, might hesitate to draw their wallets. As mentioned before "Flex will not survive without those investors". -- Sebastian On Jan 12, 2012, at 12:15 AM, Michael Schmalle wrote: > Quoting Sebastian Mohr <masul...@gmail.com>: > >> For me, the new Flex logo should send a promising sign to all those >> companies who have lost money, and, to all Flex developers who got >> fired during the last couple of weeks.
