Well, there are actually quite a lot of people who *do* care about 
the logo, so allow me to turn your question around:
Any deadline after which people that do not care about the logo will 
stop bugging us that do, and let us discuss the subject without 
having to deal with *your* crap?

If there is a posting about the same subject every week, simple 
statistics say that there has to be atleast a moderate interest in 
the subject, or else the postings would not occur. That some people 
do not find it interesting at all does not justify dropping it.
I frequently recieve postings on subjects that do not concern or 
interests me, but I simply ignore them and move on. This is chat@, 
after all.

I apologize for the somewhat harsh tone, but to be honest, your mail 
was not exactly polite either.
