Great! I pinged him about publishing some sort of writeup about
the project as one of their feature articles and he said ok. I'll
post it here first for comments once it's written.

Contest at Linux Today for a logo sounds like a good idea to me if
the artistic abilities on this list are as horrid as mine. :)
What's the prize though? Maybe we can get RedHat or someone else to
provide some sort of prize?
I have very very bad version of a logo idea up on the site
http://www.linuxdemo.org/foo.jpg Imagine the words wrapping
around the image in a circle. I haven't found a Gimp script to
do this, but will keep searching. The globe is a frame from
http://www.linuxdemo.org/world2.gif. I tried to get Tux sitting
on top of the rotating globe but he ended up flashing every complete
rotation instead.

It needs some work...but is the idea agreeable?

Added to my to do list for the page.
