Note taken. Tossing aside v0 is very important, but we can be less drastic here. I have amended the new website with a header link to the old website:
While v1 is still a WIP, it is important to communicate that until it is released, UAVCAN itself is in the state of WIP, too; one should not expect stability from v0.
Do you think this is adequate?
As I commented on during the dev-call this week: I disagree with this requirement. There arenāt enough pixels/ink dedicated to logos to convey meaningful technical information. We should choose a āpretty pictureā and imbue this icon with meaning through association.
Besides, with your āUā logo I just see a āUā with a pusher propeller 
As discussed on the dev-call: Iād like to keep v0 front-and-center until:
Once these two milestones have been reached we can discuss flipping the website messaging to be āv1ā first with āv0ā as a link.
When we do this flip we need to provide careful guidance for v0 support and a porting plan. I really want to let people know that v0 is still supported and weāll accept patches to the reference implementations but that that specification is fixed and will not change.
Letās settle this like men through voting.

Seeing as nobody submitted any alternative proposals, we are basically choosing between my logo and your logo:
Indeed, we have this tracked here: https://github.com/UAVCAN/specification/issues/20
sorry Pavel.
Well, Iām not a graphic designer so other proposals are welcome but of the ones I submitted what do people like best? (I got rid of the square one because it didnāt meet requirement 4 becoming just a blue box at 16x16)

I donāt like any of them. Do you have other alternatives?
a message bus drives into this thread
the message bus is unstoppable
nobody expected a pulse train inside a bus
(no one expects to bike-shed over a logo!)
What if I used Russo One?
Logo is important.
I do not have strong feelings towards any particular font face.
The option 2 could be okay if we spelled the word āUAVCANā in its entirety (otherwise weāre kind of promoting the old acronym). And possibly added a second line on top, representing the roof of a bike shed.
Not impressed by a pulse bus? Try data bus!
Scales quite well, too:
Do you want to vote over what accent color will be used first?

ā¦ and then we can come up with something that semantically represents the purpose of this library. I may sketch something up in photoshop later
Do you want to vote over what accent color will be used first?
It should be a superintelligent shade of blue.
This concept represents a regular bike shed:
This font very decidedly evokes the United States Navy. It looks like the name on the side of an aircraft carrier.
(sorry, Iām a bad person)
You have to be very careful with block fonts. Most evoke either collegiate sports or the military.
Hereās my input for colours

a logo using the primary blue colour from that theme:
I grow weary of this thread. Save us @Zarkopafilis!
Canāt win, can we? I suggest we just go with Comic Sans.
I swear I will hire a professional designer unless we agree on something very soon. Yes, this is a threat.
