Hey everyone,
Should we have a think about Fedora maybe getting an animal mascot? We
have a great logo at the moment but I think people can relate more to
animals and it might give the project a more friendly feel? This kind
of thing has proven successful for a certain kernel as well as
distributions such as SuSE. Not to say we should just be copying the
other distributions ideas but I think they are onto something there.
This topic arises from time to time, there's a wiki page dedicated to
mascots, have you seen it?

We could have Sean the turtle. Why? Because I have a turtle named
Sean
(

nice SVG logo out of a turtle; plus, they would make good cuddly toys
which is good for merchandise. There has been some support for the
idea already when I asked in the Fedora group on Identica earlier.
I just thought I would mention it, what do you think?
Thanks a lot,
Greeting
