I like the foundation logo. It's clear, simple and effective.

Then why don't remove that logo?

Why is the www.firebirdsql.org logo different if we have an "official" logo?

Why is the bird used in the "I'm a Firebird sponsor" image different?

Wouldn't it be time to set things straight once and for all?
