After a discussion between PMCs, we came to the conclusion that we need more time and more logos to decide.
New requirements for our new logo are that we need to avoid elements with strong association with Native American culture like arrows or shields.

Submissions are opened until 19 December 12:00AM UTC.
https://newlogo.spamassassin.org is still available to accept new logo proposals.
  Thanks
