K-9 Mail, the single largest open source E-Mail client on Android, is in dire need of a new logo! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fsck.k9 Related info, I have been working on PGP/MIME support in K-9 full time since January. Most of that work is already merged on master, and is going to make it into a release very soon!

Although I'm not part of the project so I can't speak too much for or against a specific design choice, I certainly hope if the logo gets redesigned that it still features K-9 from Doctor Who in some variation, that would be nice. Not a deal breaker, but I immediately know the mail client by the K-9 logo.

DebConf17 is looking for a logo (2 days left for proposals): https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf17/Artwork/LogoProposal... The Debian long-term security support project is looking for a logo. Other Debian related projects are looking for icons: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/RequestArtwork Tangentially related, the Debian release team is looking for release artwork for Debian stretch: https://wiki.debian.org/Deb…

Being a Debian Developer I can't recommend enough to artist to join the project and help with its visual identity.

How do you tell which is the most upvoted comment? Do you see comment scores? I don't.

I don't have totally sure, but I think the comments are arranged by upvotes.

I don't think they are, there's often comments at the top that are posted x minutes ago where x < 10. I don't think posts that new could have that many votes. There's probably a weighting factor comparing votes to recency, maybe other factors too.

I like to propose Ledger ( http://ledger-cli.org ), a command-line double-entry accounting system, which is account and currency agnostic, featuring filtered reports, budgeting, forecasting, time-keeping, a Python module, and much more.

Once you go ledger you never go back!

Thats my guess as well. Thats why we chose to give it a 48 hour wait, so when the storm has settled, we can pick the top comment.
