*** ACTION Richi -- Ask Quim if he can help with this.
*** There is a similar item: see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MediaWiki_Community_UNOFFICIAL_DRAFT.svg (=maybe an alternative)
*** Using the community colors means we do align with the community. Is that the case?
*** yes, that's our self-conception
** How about a version with text?
*** Have different derivations, logo without text is main version
