.... of the contest for the new TC6 logo was not so easy 
to determine.

32 delegates have participated (the biggest number ever!)
without counting me.

Their voting: see annex.

 8 for the upper
11 for the middle
11 for the lower
 1 for another logo.

In view of that, I have made a tie-break competition at my institute
which ended up largely in favour of the middle proposal (the green one)
and here I would like to follow André´s argument who preferred
that one, too
since "TC6 is clearly seen there".
Thus I put my own voting for the middle one and the case was decided!
Please find enclosed the new logo in different versions and formats

and please use it for announcement of your events etc.

In the near future I'll order some new pins which should be
available for Networking 2005 and for later events.
Of course I'll do that only if the cost for - say -
1.000 pins will be less than one student travel or one
best paper award or something like that.

Best wishes and thank you very much for your participation
