While I like the awe the black-hole pictures create ... I don't know why I get the 'debian' feeling. Is it the spiral nature?

That's a really good point, we definitely need to avoid creating a strong Debian logo reference. We want to have our own look!

Hi Guys, I am not sure that the idea with the black holes is entirely good.
The black holes are directly associated in physics with the Information paradox (some of the information in the Universe might be lost forever). This paradox is not solved for 30 years. Nobody actually knows what the black holes really are and what they are doing. You can place the equation of Steven Hawkins about the black holes, for it is brilliant mathematics (and physics). But the very idea of placing the symbol of loosing information on the 'cover page' of an OS - well, I don't know how to comment this.
Best regards, Christo Petkov

Gazing back through many iterations of our themes, the majority of them involve light in some interesting way. I don't know whether that's intentional, but it's a strong motif with positive connotations.
