No, this wasn't orchestrated by the FreeBSD Core Team. As others have already mentioned, see http://logo-contest.freebsd.org/ for the details. I must confess it's difficult to find how the designs were assessed, but my recollection was that it was a vote of all FreeBSD developers, currently I think about 300. There were 181 votes. > it would be interesting to learn the total # of "core" members, The FreeBSD core team consists of 9 members, elected every 2 years. Currently one of the positions is vacant. See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributors/staff-core.html for more details. > and how the vote went, yay and nay, and whether, it at all, the > "core" is hearing the message which seems to be emanating from the > "non-core".. Jun Kuriyama has been reading this thread. He is both a core team member and the coordinator of the contest. I'm sure other core team members have been following as well. > IOW, can the decision be reversed? is it being considered? if not, > it's all moot. Anything can be reversed. I don't know if it's being considered. But if you feel so strongly about this, any further discussion belongs on the advocacy group. If you don't want to join that group, by definition you don't feel strongly enough. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
