One of the most sensible comments that was made about the icons was that we had a different icon for each major version. We can use the proposed icon for emacs-23. Given that we don't really have an overabundance of artists willing to work on things like this, and that the proposed icons look really good, let's check in version 1 (it leads by one vote). We have to show some goodwill here. There's enough time to refine the icon until 23.1 is released. Does this sound like a sensible plan?
