Please don't. If we ever want to manufacture/license a mascot and change 
it all the time, we will sit on a huge pile of expensive goodies that 
are outdated.

If we ever should stick to a mascot, I would propose a fish. For various 
reasons.

- Since Finding Nemo fish are perceived as schweet ;-)
- A fish feeds the penguin, a nice pun wrt being a Linux distribution ;-)
- A fish needs water - symbolises the ecosystem around Open Source
- A fish never sleeps ;-)

So I would propose a Blue Clown fish ala Finding Nemo. I am sure Nicu 
can come up with a beautiful SVG of a clownfish with the fedora F on its 
skin ;-)
