reworking of the logo, in SVG.

my 6th idea for a logo, at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ISIS/LogoIdeas

I'm not sure I like it more than the one we're using (my 1st idea), but 
at least it is in SVG so should be editable/tweakable by everyone (use 
Inkscape as the editor).

Hi Mike,
Not sure I'm wedded to that font either.

I was thinking of using the original font from the naked objects logo 
(see http://nakedobjects.org/), but didn't know it's name.  Then I had 
this thought about something with a slightly Egyptian feel.  In the end 
went with something that'd make interesting shapes against the backdrop.

~~~
Regarding the feathering, I'm not so keen.  I think that the shapes want 
to be clean, so that they scale well.  I've changed to using curves 
because I was trying to get it so that that the feel of the logo overall 
is reminiscent of a wing.

Thanks for the input, please feel free to play around with the logo 
yourself.  Inkscape has a bit of a learning curve, but it's pretty good, 
and cross platform.

Cheers
Dan

Sorry Dan but I don't like the font. I like the feathers though, maybe they could be "featherised" ie towards Nour's suggestion. I like the font on Nour's too, but just put "Isis" as you have, not "Apache"
