It means at least two things. One of them is quite acceptable

If Winnie the Pooh managed to get this popular, Weego can do it.

If rinigus prefers that i make a neat job. In my eyes the world looks now like a disk. Better to say a compact disk

Trying to see it with the same size as other icons on app grid, that could actually work. It has less fine details which is probably good

So I shall do a clean version of that?
Maybe I'll also offer a version without the marker inside and just the globe. Will do that tomorrow.

Yeah, but for Weego we will need then an icon with a small boy from Brussels. And relieving himself on a map, I presume. Too many jokes can be made, although I may start taking easier on all bug reports...

As for origin of the WhoGo, see https://openrepos.net/comment/23933#comment-23933 . In this aspect, Pure Maps (suggested earlier) and maybe Hugo Maps (interpretation of WhoGo Maps) fit the bill.

Lets see if we can formulate names that will get the preference by many,

Sorry, typing on phone => not clear reply by me.

I think its the good icon as it is. If you remove the marker, it will suddenly become rather generic globus inside SFOS shaped curvy surrounding. This marker, for me, transforms it into direction pointer with the globus showing any destination.

Any preferences by others?

Thank you very much for taking the initiative and making it!

Is it really necessary to split off, though? It would be the third virtually identical map application in the timespan of a year. Is there no way to co-author? If you suddenly find yourself in need of more time to review your own changes, is someone else going to create another fork, and then another, and one more? These applications are already more or less one-man projects, I don't think losing the coordinated development you have going on now is a good thing.

True.

If we really need a 'new' name I vote for PureMaps, clean, clear and back to the roots.
I also liked the HuGo approach

And applause to Fellfrosch for this nice icon!
