I would like to address here the "BSD not wanted" argument that seems to
be implied by having a Penguin in the logo:
- Nouveau does not currently run on any other kernel but Linux. I know
that the BSDs are interested in porting Nouveau to their OS and I'm
happy they are doing so, but I do not think any real development will
happen on BSD unless both communities change heavily;
As a FreeBSD developer, I take no offense in this logo and find it very
beautiful in fact :-) Beside being the Linux mascot, I think Tux often
represents Free Software in people minds. Of course some users will
think that Nouveau is specific to Linux when they see this logo, but the
day we work on porting the driver, it's our job to communicate the fact
that it works on FreeBSD too.
I was sure you would not mind, but it's good to see it in public!
All in all, the logo won't stop us from stealing Nouveau :-)
I hope not! Indeed!
Congratulations Valeria for your work!
Agreed!
Martin
