I also pointed out to Matt the 'branches' icon which a few folks worked
on earlier.  I like that it has some kind of indirect association with
the word 'bazaar' (mediteranean countries, etc).  To me the main problem
with that logo 

  http://bazaar-vcs.org/LogoOptions

is that although it looks good in detail, the overall outline looks more
like a pair of eyes or an X.  It seems to particularly get that effect
when scaled down.  If we could perhaps keep the branches but change
their arrangement it might work well.
