logos need development, it's not a thing of making one. sometimes it's a thing of going through 200 to 400 logos until you find the one.
Well. . . if this were a commercial product, I would totally agree. As it is a publically funded GOTS product, I can think of better things on which to spend taxpayer money.

We never contracted to design a logo. As a taxpayer, I would be a little irritated if we had.

As far as I am concerned, the DHIMs logo was more than adequate.
