I'm glad this exercise has brought up some interesting discussions.
Now that the community has come up with the ideas (by the way thanks a lot
for your participation) it makes it much easier not to have icann ideas
imposed on us but we can use their service to design based on the current
ideas of ncuc members. Of course we will send the final logo to ncuc before
using it. But that's about it for now.
Here is what I'm gonna do: I will submit your ideas to EC and then to Comms
and ask for a logo based on these ideas. If their end result is agreeable
to us we use it. If not we stay with the current one unless we find other
ways to design a logo which does not take us too much time and discussion.
Thanks a lot for your contributions. I really enjoyed seeing your ideas in
the Google doc.
