I don't understand why people format documentation as pdf and link it from a website. It's so much more useful when it is browsable.<br>

</div>There is one official logo: the butterfly.<br>

Please do use that one all the time.<br>
Having just one logo isn't just copying big corporations bad karma - it<br>
is critical to the success of any project that relies on public recognition.<br>

</div>I like the idea of dual licencing: GPL3+ to be able to release it with<br>
code and CC-BY-SA to let everybody print & use it.<br>
I'll clarify that in a seperate mail to the list to give the project<br>
lead opportunity to react.<br>

Mentioning this makes me really sad since we even have a logo for the<br>
foundation and an finished website design that just won't go online. :(<br>
