Further problems with the current logo:
* the French pedia has a completely different logo, which (AFAIK) came
out of some crossed wires
* there are flag variants of it, such as the Danish pedia. We've agreed
elsewhere that languages should NOT be identified with flags of countries.

I REALLY like the sunflower and brackets!!!!!
I would be tempted to suggest we sometimes switch the circular object
inside the brackets (like Google plays with its logo too).
Switch to a planet earth from time to time, or an eclipsed sun when
there is a solar eclipse occurring.
(avoid things that represent cultural / religious festivals though ... )
It would be great if at any time EVERY pedia displayed the same logo!
