It's pretty clear to me that the waterlily graphic is *not* a logo; it's a
web graphic. I like it on the website. But it doesn't have the right
characteristics for a logo.

Yes, and not gray scale either. Just black and white.

The GNU logo does not have to be incorporated. See, for example the GIMP
logo. http://www.gimp.org/
I agree that if we want to have a logo available on the colophon, we
should create a real logo. And this will require some work and discussion.
