Yes, i agree. I didn't like the HTML 5 logo at all, we had a very
different draft for XML. It used a soft handwritten font and blue on
white as i recall. There was a cultural problem to resolve, as i
recall, easing a French letterform that was ambiguous in some other
cultures, and we had one go-round before the funding ended.
