There's a misunderstanding on that page. It's Not a FreeBSD logo, it's the generic BSD graphic that Free,Net,Open,Dragon etc systems & users use courtesy of Kirk McKusik's consent, if & where given. So it appears Kirk's (cc'd) right to sue/ pursue or whatever, not ours. I see it's got what (I suppose an American) described as "Billy Ray Cyrus-style mullet". Maybe that translates from American to English as "extra hair at the back" So the graphic appears a derived work, a modification of copyright material. -- Julian Stacey. Consultant Unix Net & Sys.
