-questions appears to be having a severe case of NIH. I note that rather 
than reuse the efforts that netbsd (who wound up producing gigabytes* of 
diatribe on the subject of what constitutes a logo / mascot etc, of the 
highest quality I might add) went to, people seem to be rolling their 
own once again. I rather suspect that this will end up producing yet 
another incompatibility between netbsd and freebsd.

Can we not just import Net's flamefest instead? It was well-structured, 
well-thought out, and - most importantly - it was completed some time 
ago.

Cheers,
jan
