The problem is not that I don't think we can make it but that I'd rather
do more important think with the time I spend for FSCONS, like having a
makerfaire :-D

I see that we differ, but you still haven't expressed a concrete reason
why you think this change is necessary. For example, if we were
infringing on someone else's trademark, that'd be a good reason to act.
Why do you think that "it's about time" to change?

That's very well and good but it doesn't change much: again, I'm not
opposing the change itself, I'm just not motivated to put a lot of work
into it.

This is a good suggestion. Although, at the risk of being annoying, I
would like to say that I'm not really interested in contacting a guy (or
a girl or anyone, no discrimination intended) who'll just drop us a
bunch of images with a new style and will let us take it from there...
