Sorry, but the PDF Reader campaign icon is not a recognized PDF icon. By showing that icon we are not endorsing any proprietary reader. > Wikimedia has the same problem, it displays Adobe Acrobat icons for all > its PDF links.

The mailing list strips attachments, but in any case we will not use any icon that does not represent PDF files, and this has nothing to do with the fact that we endorse proprietary PDF readers (which is not true).
