Taking into account these and other comments, I've cut my original
set of twelve down to five and performed a few revisions.
1. Triquetra/gear interlace: no changes.
2. Triskele-T: thickened the triskele for better visibility at small sizes.
3. Tree-nity: added more branches and leaves, for a healthier-looking tree. ;)
4. Triquetra + small gear: swapped colours
5. Triquetra over gear: made the triquetra larger.
Top row is the original logos from the first draft, second row is the
modifications, third row is an attempt at the modifications as CrystalSVG-
style menu buttons, fourth row is the original-original (KDE3 K button,
easier to find on my machine than the T button) for comparison purposes.
Some of them still need a little more work (widening some lines more,
possibly larger leaves on the tree-nity, more thought given to colours and
gradients, and a good manual node cull), but I'm running out of weekend. ;)

I think though we should move away from the
"gear" concept if we are going
to change our logo.
I would sort of agree. But I rather like some of the combinations, and our
roots are part of our attraction, so it is in some ways nice to be reminded.
I would also personally prefer to stay away from anything that reminds me,
however remotely and unjustifiably, of the swastika. I know that it is an
ancient symbol, I know that it is in fact the symbol of light, I know that it
was the wrong way round, I know it had four arms etc. etc. But I don't like
being reminded of it. (The one in the top right corner).
My husband (my resident guinea pig) particularly liked the tree and the one
under it. I particularly like the one under the tree. Interestingly enough,
my husband disliked the ones with gears on aesthetic grounds!! But I also
liked the one at the far left of the bottom row. Not as much as the T with
the triskele. That is really nice and very "suitable" IMHO.
