IIRC it's already more than a year since the beginning of the first
competition. I have for a long time said myself "there's no hurry", but if
we just keep saying like that we'll never get anywhere.

Almost half a year ago I set the deadline for the current contest and
everyone seemed to think it was plenty of time. Now where the deadline is
almost reached I would feel rather stupid just extending it again.

Also, I think the POV-Team will only choose a logo they can fully accept. I
don't think they will go on compromise with the logo just to get one. So if
they choose one, it's great. And if they don't, we can always make a new
contest later.

Please tell me what are the mistakes of the second (the current) contest?
