Andre,

You're 100% right about using the sign made by Am here in Brazil. I think
using this proposed sign would avoid the use of GNOME because of it's sexual
appealing.
Just to register: Here, when somebody disagree with other, he/she shows the
Okay sign, when they have some kind of friendship or shows the sign followed
by a 'river' of bad words when they aren't friends. Or vice-versa. This is
commonly used by uneducated people or incult one.
