Hi Noah,

nice, thanks

so I do have a few comments
- at smaller sizes it gets difficult to identify the 'A's

I messed around in gimp a little and here are some suggestions based on things I tried, feel free to ignore
- darkening the colour does increase the contrast and helps with the white A but doesn't help the coloured A, I think because it has less contrast to the shadow
- extending the none shared legs a little (they can extend into the border) does help with being able recognize the 'A's when the logo is small
- providing a dark outline (I used the outline color) does help with the 'A's visibility

of course I understand some of these may affect the logo in adverse ways when you are looking at a larger version.


the other question would be around licensing, if you want it to be used in the upstream project (and not just yast) the license will need to be compatible, and open to sharing.
