Hi All,
Here are my remarks about some of the logo candidates.

C) the letters "C++" and the scope resolution operator "::" simply aren't very visually appealing.
I don't think so. For one, (not that this counts ;) ) my favorites are the logos 20 43 and 39 (38 not so much) All of them could improve a bit, e.g. #20 should be recolored, take a real blue instead of the "baby blue" , strong bordeaux red instead of "dirty pink" and have a bit more contrast in the white parts. In #43 the dots in "::" should be round, that would be more appealing. It would be also possible to change #43 to read "boost<c++>" (like #25) Because "boost<c++>" IMHO tells every c++ programmer exactly what boost does (even how it does it.) Further it would work in Text only browsers, too and it could be reused for other language bindings, e.g. "boost<phyton>" What I like about either "::", "++" and "< >" is that one imediately thinks of c++.
