Well, this is not a manpower issue. It was a deliberate decision to remove
the Fedora logo from the wallpaper, in order to make life easier for Remix
distributions. It was also a deliberate decision to discontinue release
names, after a few particularly unflattering ones had been selected: inside
jokes (and one that also happened to offend all Hindus, vegetarians, and
vegans at once), villains, even a reference to a certain kind of software
bugs! These decisions (which were made for a reason, as you can see) are why
the Fedora artists can no longer employ this pattern for their wallpapers,
not any kind of lack of manpower.
