Michael K. Johnson and I have decided to use the Linux seagull logo on the
title page of the Linux Documentation Project manuals as well as other
works. We're working right now on integrating the logo with the current
linuxdoc.sty LaTeX style format used by the LDP.
While this by no means makes it "official", it's about as official as you
can get in the Linux community. The seagull represents many things about
[...]
I'd like to emphasize that this is not intended to tell other people
what they like in a logo. If "you", whoever you are, are putting out
a Linux-related product, and you want to use a blade of grass or an
airplane or a cloud or whatever as the logo, that's fine with me.
*Unless Linus decides he wants one particular logo, let's not try to
make any logo official!*
However, since a lot of us in the doc project like the storm petrel
logo, and for a few other reasons, we have chosen to put it on our
work...
