No, it isn't.

The whole is not the one and, as someone who spent a huge amount of time
lobbying to have the database project extend nationally instead of just
being closeted to CBV, I find it rather insulting that I'm lumped in
with the CBV == CAI point of view.

I'm not suggesting we don't change. Read what I said again.

YES!

Choosing a logo won't improve the completely dysfunctional situation.
