[Foundation-l] The Chinese New Year Wikipedia Logo

[Anthere]

I know that some people are not favorable to festive logo.
I personally love festive logos and if the Chinese community is happy
with it, it is great.

Happy New Year !

PS: we know that this will be the new year because our supermarkets are
putting asian food everywhere to celebrate it. That's a good marketing
opportunity.
