What does Debian have to do with the programs that are missing a menu icon? We package them, but I don't think that's reason enough to use Debian's logo for unrelated things. People who use a Debian system, but don't know much about the project itself, will soon come to associate Debian's logo with all sorts of random stuff. That's not really a good idea. If you really, really insist on using the same icon for lots of unrelated stuff, at least make a new one that doesn't have any existing meaning and use. -- Enemies of Carlotta 1.0 mailing list manager: http://liw.iki.fi/liw/eoc/
