So you can also take the queston "what kind of people do we want to attract", and create a Logo accordingly.
IMHO, we do not need to differ in our logo from the FSF. Lets draw the Gnu with an 'typical European' Symbol, maybe
I'd go for the 12 stars and gnu inside, only I'd like to have a barely sketched gnu image instead of the FSF one. Fits the logo purpose _much_ better IMO. I have a clear image of what I mean in my mind, too bad I can't draw... :-)
And there should probably be some additional "font" (EUFSF?) logo for suitable, distinct uses.
Maybe I'm a little bit on the practical side here, but the argument that the logo should be "catchy" does not get to the point IMHO. A logo should be communicative (hence the GNU and the stars) and keep informative in the broadest contexts -- including engraving (looking forward to my EUFSF key fob!), 2-color printing and such.
