It was subject to a Debian vote in 1999 - https://wiki.debian.org/DebianLogo "The chicken" was used for a period before that. The version with the bottle appears to have been more or less unused - the Open Use logo - and almost everyone has used the Debian Official logo - the swirl. The swirl is also very close to one of the demo outlines in a commercial graphics application - I forget which. All the very best, as ever Andy Cater
