Suggestion

Please see CZ:Topic Informant Workgroup: it seems to me that this is a perfect opportunity for us to do some interviews of some of the people involved, and/or to have them look at the article and suggest corrections and expansions. Let me know if you're interested. --Larry Sanger 15:47, 11 April 2007 (CDT)

I'm interested. I'll try to track down a current e-mail for each of the guys mentioned in the article. --Joshua David Williams 18:50, 11 April 2007 (CDT)

New version

Thanks to Thomas, I believe the toapprove tag can now be updated. He did a wonderful job! --Joshua David Williams 18:09, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

Why a Linux mascot?

I remember reading in some Usenet post by Linus that he liked the concept of a mascot because more can be done with it than a static logo. He mentioned that the Windows logo is nice, but there's not a lot that can be done with it. So I think the last paragraph needs to be changed slightly after I track down that message. --Joshua David Williams 19:41, 13 April 2007 (CDT)
