OO.org Selects Its Own Sea Bird

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the penguin-was-taken dept.

Elektroschock writes "A new mascot of the OO.org project was announced today: A crazy sea gull. I wonder whether it will help to convince office workers of Open Office. "Andrea [Maggioni]'s contribution is not only beautiful and effective but also illustrates the potential of young people to contribute importantly to real projects under the banner of Free and Open Source Software." Andrea, "whose cheerful drawing, of a fun-looking seagull holding a fish, plays on the "OOo" shorthand of OpenOffice.org"... ehemm, it's a crazy sea gull."

    HAhaHahaa!!! I think all open source projects should have mascots drawn by fourth graders. I think it would suit the movement well.

    Honestly. Who cares about Open Ofice? It's big, it's slow, it's dead. Time for something new and refreshing, not a crappy MS Office copy.
