Re: [TCLCORE] New Logo ?

[Colin M. <col...@ya...>]

Dear All,

The Tk source includes a directory library/images which contains the 
original feather tcl/tk and tcl-powered logos in various GIF sizes, plus 
Adobe Illustrator source files for them.

I propose to add the toolbox design below to this directory.  It is in 
SVG format which is compact, editable and can be displayed at different 
sizes.  I think the criterion for doing this should not be whether it is 
the best logo that could ever be produced, given unlimited time and 
resources, but just whether adding it is better or worse than not adding it.

I have kept the text as "Tcl/Tk" but if this is felt to be a legal risk 
I could change it to "tcl/tk".  I could also add a "Tcl-powered" version.

Would a TIP be required to proceed with this?

Colin.
