Doug,
I asked O'Reilly's permission to use the "camel and feather" without
acknowledging them, and they said NO, see letter below from Edie Freedman.
I say mod-perl needs to adopt a non-proprietary logo. Wasn't
there a page somewhere that had competing designs? Perhaps
I can use one of them.

John-
I am sorry but we can't allow usage of the camel logo without
attribution. We have to protect our trademark.
Thanks for checking, and best of luck with the web site.

I have seen many sites use the logo without the o'reilly permission. I'd
say go ahead and use it, worst case is that o'reilly starts asking people
to remove the image.
