Again, that is an additional restriction compared to BSL. I do not accept that. By this I mean, as a Boost library maintainer, I would have to remove the references to your new logo from my libraries to keep them under BSL. As a Boost user, I would have to reconsider how I'm consuming and packaging Boost. Stopping using official Boost releases with the logo would be one of the options. Needless to say, I'd be very unhappy, whichever hat I wear.
I really don't understand how an image can be right under BSL. BSL only speaks about software: "...use, reproduce, display, distribute, execute, and transmit the Software, and to prepare derivative works of the Software..." and certainly the logo is not software. It seems to me that we need a different license for the logo, but sadly I'm not an expert on that. Maybe we should take inspiration from other software projects which have a logo. E.g. POCO uses BSL for software but "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International" for the logo. Best, Ion
