This is something of a belated announcement. The IDPF wants to adopt a new Epub logo, and they're hoping you can design it for them. They're having a contest right now, and are accepting entries until 7 May 2010.
Here is the email I received:

EPUB Logo Contest: Submissions accepted until May 7, 2010
Dear MobileRead Moderators, Contributors and Readers,
Many of you in digital space work with EPUB in some form or another and I want to ensure you or your company is aware of the opportunity to design the Official EPUB Logo. EPUB logo submissions will be received until 2400 eastern on May 7, 2010.
The purpose of the contest is to design a logo for the EPUB format. The logo is to be used by publishers, distributors, retailers, software companies and anyone else who would like to identify to the public their conformance to the EPUB standard file format. We imagine that companies who ship products and devices will use the logo on boxes and packaging material to identify compliance. We imagine that retailers will use the logo to alert their customers that the product they sell uses this standard file format. We imagine that publishers will use the logo on their websites and possibly on their printed books to alert the public that their books are also available in electronic form. Finally, we hope this will become an industry standard for recognizing product and services that conform to the EPUB standard.
Details for submitting entries and official rules can be found at www.idpf.org/EPUBlogo/epublogocontest.htm
Winning Entry will be unveiled on May 25th at IDPF Digital Book 2010 at BEA.
Best of Luck,
Michael
