Actually,
the CAISA attitude is better expressed as:
"we are exploring our options on logos as we have had a ridiculous number of 
peopple grumble about the current one, and to not review that seems silly, 
when we have such talent available"

also, we are setting up pamphlets and posters and such, and choosing a logo 
BEFORE getting those out makes sense.

we have had many comments on this, both positive and negative, but the point 
is: just because people say 'why bother' doesnt mean we wont.

we 'inherited' the current logo on joining cai, and as we grow and expand, 
feel its fair we all have a greater say in it. so, not only will caisa vote, 
we'll certainly offer it to ALL of cai to choose. we think thats fair, after 
all:)

if the majority of caisa choose the old one, what harm is done? 

hth clarify, r:)
