I think it's fine if ironic and tripleo want to stick with their current
animals (luckily they are using logos that meet the new criteria
proposed by the foundation), but I don't think it's unreasonable if the
foundation proposes a re-design of existing logos that is more
consistent with the rest of the new ones.
Lets see how it ends up :)
The logos we use today are too different from each other, i don't think
anyone would disagree with that. If each project goes off and does their
own thing it comes off as inconsistent.
I don't think I value consistency in mascots too much, but we'll see.

TripleO has had some discussion already around a project mascot, and
we've
settled on the owl logo displayed on tripleo.org
<http://tripleo.org> and our launchpad org:
http://tripleo.org/
https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/
(There is also a hi-res version or SVG around, I just can't find it atm)
This was discussed in the community and accepted here:
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2016-March/089043.html
Which was in turn based on a previous design discussed here:
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/075649.html
So, I think it's likely (unless anyone objects) we'll stick with that
current owl theme for our official mascot.
Overall I like the idea of encouraging official mascots/logos for
projects,
quite a few have done so informally and I think it's a fun way to
reinforce
project/team identity within the OpenStack community.
Thanks!
