Isn't this kind of all irrelevant? It seems clear that the recently
constructed (maybe new is misleading) logo was not created to replace
the Noisebridge logo, which I feel still stands.

If the WU/CCC/NB logo was made in a burst of post 26c3 enthusiasm, it
sounds like that's what it represents for them.

I would agree however, that it's inappropriate to replace the NB logo
on the wiki.
