I really like the latest logo/image with the "elliptical" O and the
boxes best of all the ones so far.

If you agree, then where should we put them?  In the Octave sources,
should we only include image files at various sizes to be used as
icons, or would you like to also distribute the svg file, or is there
another source file used by inkscape?

It would also be fine to add a page to the Octave web site showing the
logos and recommending usage of them.  I can help with adding the page
if someone else could come up with at least a rough draft.

Thanks!
