No change.

I prefer the current design. The bee hive also represents the community
working together nurturing top-notch software. It's been a long time, but
if memory serves me right, I spearheaded the logo contest, or at least took
a major part, back in the day when I was still very active. That logo embodies
genuine community effort, which cannot be replaced by something commissioned
with a hefty price tag.
