You have to have a confirmed e-mail account to be able to edit anything,
the errors on why you can't edit are fairly straight forward.

I'd leave that up to the greater community.  The second one there would
fit better on the page honestly, but I don't want to go making a logo
decision for the entirety of the project.

I'm not keen on making changes since that file is still coming from the
shipping version of mediawiki and I'm trying, quite a lot, to not run a
modified version of it.  I've got enough troubles with the fact that
that one change would affect 22 wikis in a single go.

As bad as it is to say this, I'd rather wait for 1.16 to come out vs.
modify it in place.  Mediawiki is claiming they are in continuous
integration development with quarterly releases but their last release
was June of 2009, so take that as you will.
