If this was an open contest, with publically available submissions, and a defined end date, then the result might actually have some credibility. As it is now, the obvious conclusion to be drawn here is that the contest organizers have not been forthcoming with results simply because they don't care for any of the images submitted so far, and are hoping that if they wait long enough, an image will come along they like. It really doesen't have anything to do with how good or poor the artistry of the submitted designs are, nor does it have anything to do with how well the userbase likes the submissions. The contest is nothing more than a cover for 1 or 2 people with sticks up their butts against Beastie to pull the pants down on the rest of us who don't have a problem with Beastie. I just hope that when they get what they want, that they take their religion and stuff it back into whatever church they pulled it out of, and get back to work adding useful code and such to FreeBSD. For, it would surely be sad if those few Beastie-haters could only count as their major FreeBSD achievement the dislodging of Beastie.
