<BR> Subject: Re: Linux Logo... From: "David Christiansen" <david@davidchristiansen.com> Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2007 13:31:09 +0000 To: ewenste@bellsouth.net Hey, Sure no problem using the graphic. I am quite stunned that it was involved in any converstation. Maybe you can tell me exactly how it got involved, I would be very interested to hear - It was a long time ago, surely my graphic was not responsible for there being discussion over a Linux Logo which resulted in the penguin? Anyhow, I am very keen to associate myself with the graphic in question - the details I submitted alongside the graphic at the time are very much out of date. As for what I am doing now, I am chief engineer for a verified identity provider in the Identity 2.0 metaverse :) Working closely with others on the development of OpenID, cardspace and such.
