Why not ? I want to see it.
The keys spelling out things took a long time on Publisher, and both words are much shorter than b-u-g-t-r-a-c-k-i-n-g. Also, the longer a word gets, the harder it is to make it look like a key (because nobody thinks of keys with huge rows of teeth). You're free to try it out, though. :)

Just use an Egyptian Scarab - Conveys the same thing without hitting the IP directly.

Nice (for some reason, this is the first time the picture has actually appeared for me). Maybe we should just say "Bugs" though, instead of "Bugtracking", as that key looks a little cramped. And it is probably best to keep the separate "forum" "wiki" and "bugtracking" titles, because some people might not notice the wording.

It IS cramped. ('forum' and 'wiki' too btw.)

It looks like the open source logo.

Certainly, the allusion to the OSI logo is there, but it's sufficiently different that I don't really think anyone could claim to be confused into thinking it was an OSI approval mark (it's not green for a start ;) ).

Nice, simple, clean. I like them. They seem to hit most of JW's original criteria. The only thing I'm not sure about is the requirement that it should not look odd when used without the "Forums", "Wiki" extension (no problem on a white ground of course). How about making the resource name a larger font and placing it behind the "OPEN URU" text? Would that work?
