[Eg-oversight-board] Swag!

[Lori Bowen Ayre]

I'm game to pursue redesigning the logo if people still want to do that.
 Now that I'm no longer sponsored by KCLS, I have to be more careful about
my time and financial commitments vis-a-vis Evergreen.....so, can we pay
someone for some number of new designs for us to consider?  Maybe $500
worth of ideas?
