As I won't have the time to come up with a different logo than the one I 
already made, my comments should not disqualify your work at all.

Just a few questions:

While Nik tried to use our triangles to create the "X" of extensions, I 
don't understand the reasons for the slash-dotted "T" in templates.

But I'm unsure with the "X" as well - due to the positioning of the 
triangles in 90° angles it looks quite static in comparison to the 
"Scatter" motif.

Do you think that extensions and templates are so similar that they 
should be kept on the same centralized area?

I could imagine one site for extensions and a different one (perhaps 
http://templates.libreoffice.org) for templates.

In this case we would need two different logos and icons - the 
combination of "XT" would not help any more.

Best regards

Bernhard
