Not to throw a wrench in things, but I got into work this morning and saw m=
y badge from the CloudStack conference in San Jose earlier this year. It's =
the face of a monkey made up of a bunch of text from some CloudStack docume=
ntation. I thought something to that effect with the words "powered", "by",=
 "apache", and "cloudstack" scattered (but obvious) throughout the logo. Wh=
at are everyone's thoughts on this?? I'm not asking to change things, I'm j=
ust brainstorming here.
