It's not the "old one". Actually, the green logo was made by Igor Sysoev and it is the oldest and the only official logo.

That one from "wiki.nginx.org" is made by Cliff Wells, creator of the wiki: http://www.enemyofthestatement.com/page/view/about

btw, it's funny, @maratd who wrote "Placing communist imagery in the logo isn't amusing" doesn't even imagine that it actually was done by US citizen.

Perform a simple whois on nginx.org and you will see that Igor Sysoev is the registrant.

That logo appears on his website over which he has complete control, even now.

I was always taught to assume the best about people.

I will assume that you are correct, that another gentleman who is either ignorant or has a poor sense of humor created and used the logo. I will assume that Mr. Sysoev is far too nice to tell Mr. Wells to take it down.

I retract what I previously said.

EDIT:

I have read the comment which you posted below, in Russian. Mr. Sysoev said that he didn't make it and doesn't like it, for the same reasons I gave earlier. It seems he is too nice to tell the gentleman to take it down.

I apologize for what I said.
