[Foundation-l] Along with Vector, a new look for changes to the Wikipedia identity

[Lodewijk]

Hi Jay,

thanks for your update. I am glad that the characters etc have been so
thoroughly prepared, and I followed some of it - great team effort
indeed.

However, I am missing why it was decided to decrease the size of the
logo. It definitely looks more professional, but also somewhat less
friendly to me. Maybe it is just me, maybe not - I just would like to
understand the rationale first.

And is there any chance that the middle horizontal line is made
slightly less intense? Right now, the attention is drawn there (at
least for me) instead of the open part at the top. It gives me a
slight impression as if the bowl is about to burst. Which is of course
a valid representation of the truth with all community uproar lately,
but I don't think it should be our message :)

Best, Lodewijk
