Since we are in branding discussion...
I am not sure who is "they", but I can give it a try
It was perceived that we should give a real identity to each project logo, not make the logo a derivative either of Wikipedia, or of Wikimedia Foundation. If I remember well, the logo suggested used WMF colors. And we asked that this be avoided.
I presume this is the right page:http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikibooks/Logo
See at the bottom of the page.

Anthere, so long as it seems we have your attention, I was wondering what exactly was the status of the new logo? I'm pretty convinced that a shiny new logo would be a great way to kickstart wikibooks' image. I know all wikibookians won't agree with me on that point, however.
Who has the final say in the logo? can each wikibooks project select a logo individually, or do all wikibooks projects have to have the same logo? What I mean to ask is, can the en.wikibooks community vote on the issue themselves, or do we have to have a "global" discussion on meta only?
I would like to get the discussion going again on logo discussion, because i feel like it's really been put on the back burner.
