Oh yes, forgot to ask... Is this a replies-on-top mailing list? I've been on
a few that get.... Fidgetey with that.

Anyway, I can most certainly chip away at those in my spare time. I was
somewhat bored already, so while I was waiting for a reply I did take a hack
at re-designing the OSM logo icon, I can't post it to the wiki, it won't let
me, but I can link it:

I can upload the SVG once I set up a wiki account and get it to autoapprove
status for uploads. If there's anything very specific that's needed (and not
just my random selections) please, do tell me. It's a little hard to tell
what's critical/important/wanted since I don't speak... That (Russian,
German?). :S
