Have the Zope principals considered a different logo? The current logo is ...is...ok but It might help to have something that "sizzles".

Yes. At a minimum, the current logo has a color problem.

I see that the http://www.opensource.org has a logo contest and there are a number of cool submissions:

We previously ran a logo contest but didn't get a lot of submissions.

Does (will) zope.org sell any stickers for server boxes that say: "Zope Inside" ?

If there's a demand I'll do just about anything. Of course, last time I said that was at a party in college, and it's taken years to get that incident off my record :^)

It seems like the day is not to far away when anyone can order a _small_ box that only has two connections: Power and 100/Ethernet. No monitor/keyboard, built in battery backup like laptops.

Take it to the home/office/ISP and plug it into the network, turn on the hidden switch and you have a "Zope Instant Web" Naturally, the OS is Linux.

Think of Linux less as the OS and more as the Zope runtime system :^)

Boxes could be sold by the big guys: Dell/Gateway/Micron etc or even an off-brand outfit.

Obviously these boxes are already being sold and doing well. --Paul
