> There was a quick discussion with Apache Trademarks along the lines "If it ever came to a legal challenge, would we care enough to defend our usage? If not, changing it discreetly and voluntarily is the best route."
> The result: we _must_ change our logo this year to some original art.
>  
> Criteria for a new logo, as discussed on the mailing list: [https://lists.apache.org/thread/m5w7fmkjnrl8m4hlbw8xhzr4v69xg3ml]:
> Must:
>  * be unique and not similar to anything “out there”
>  * be available in a vector format (SVG) so it can be scaled with full accuracy
> Should:
>  * show either something of the name (like Beam, Airflow, Ant, Drill) or what it does (like Mahout, Bookkeeper, Ratis, Pulsar)
>  * have 2 variants: Square/Circle (social media, favicon, etc) and rectangle (top banner)
> Could:
>  * have the banner logo be the compact logo with the name attached, or more elaborate
> Would:
>  * have limited colors; at most 5-10 (so like Iceberg, not like Flex with the gradients)
>  
> _To allow sufficient artistic freedom, we should limit new requirements. Instead, please add ideas in the comments._
>  
> See [https://www.apache.org/logos/] for many examples
