YES !  Would you prefer to let your neighbour decorate your house (or
whatever),
or would you better trust someone with some talent in that area ?

Few things are really that subjective.  In this case (logo), we could
easily sort out (by discussing it) a set of _criterias_, and evaluate
the logos according to these criterias; pretty objective way of doing
things, caus' it's easy to discern if a logo match or do not match
a well defined criteria.  It would have been better if these criterias
were set _before_ people started designing logos, but it's not too late.

If, finally, more than one logo fulfills all the criterias, we
could always vote to sort the "best liked", but we then will be sure
that much objectivity was put in the process.

We have the chance to be a wide communauty, and it helps getting
as many good ideas as possible.  Reducing the product of such a
potential creativity to a single-vote-choice is regrettable.
