I agree with Austin. We cannot just force communities to adopt this new thing. Lets try for a clean start.

I also understand why the majority of them haven't adopted the proposed logo. I'm glad that this has been brought to Foundation-l, and wholeheartedly support a reconsideration of this decision with a broader audience—after all, a project's logo affects the overall Wikimedia brand identity, not just those closely involved with that project. For my money, by the way, I think we should start over.
