        Let's focus on t-shirts and coffee mugs first. That contest has been
on the website(s) since February of 2001, with _zero_ submissions. It's the
next thing on my plate to get out to the public, en-masse. T-shirts, coffee
mugs, and (maybe) mouse pads.

        I was going to hire artwiz to do it, but he got sucked up by Ximian
and GNOME to do some of their work (and I ran out of employment). More ideas
are welcome, but I really like the pacifier, and I think it would make a
good keyring fob (one of my other ideas for shwag), a nice steel Plucker
pacifier, with the website url etched in the back.

        Odd that the Mozilla project is rife with Ghostbuster references..

        That's "Wilbur", and he's a... uhm... a... thing-a-mabob.

        My vote is to keep the pacifier. I like it, it's not offensive, and
it is still relevant to the project name. As for 'Plucker' versus 'plucker',
I tend to use 'Plucker' when talking about the project ("the Plucker
project", "the Plucker team", "the Plucker viewer"), and 'plucker', when I'm
using it as a verb (pluck, plucking, pluckerizing content). YMMV of course.
