IM NOT SURE IF YOU KNOW IT OR NOT BUT ARCH LINUX USERS ARE TAKING POT SHOTS AT OUR LOGO IN THEIR SOURCE CODE.

https://github.com/trizen/alsi/blob/master/alsi#L830

I HAVE ALREADY FORKED AND REMOVED THE OFFENSIVE LINE WITH SOMETHING MORE SENSIBLE

https://github.com/lavacano/glsi/blob/master/glsi#L837

What I need is:

Stylized Znurt ASCII
Stylized Larry ASCII
packaging needed

I already have "gentoo" stylized but I'd like to include all our mascots.

lavacano,

Its been drawn to the attention of the trustees of the Gentoo Foundation Inc, who are charged with taking care of our intellectual property.
Thats our logo and a few other things.

Bashing the competition is a bad idea too. Deletion of the offending text is the best course of action.

Disclosure
I am one of the trustees of the Gentoo Foundation Inc

Better stop any war if you goes at war with a "RETARDED SEX-TOY"...

I did. I have lost the steam for now. I did put the obligatory trademark remarks in for now.

lavacano,

No, no code war, its a waste of everyones resources.
Lets leave it with the trustees an a body.

The consensus may be different to my own opinion expressed it this thread.

Yeah, don't feed the troll. They're only doing it for the attention anyway, nobody would care about yet-another-screenfetch-clone otherwise.
