Thanks for the feedback. =A0I wasn't really intending to replace = Glenda
(that would be deeply wrong)---but I've always rather thought s/he was<= br> a mascot more than a logo. =A0As for 9 Front, they seem to already have
a logo and distinctive aesthetic and I rather think they should stick
with it (I particularly like their ironic choice of Helvetica).

In anycase, it seems to me there isn't really a logo, badge, or visual<= br> device which represents a geneological conection with Plan 9 or
indicates the use of Plan 9-derived technology. =A0This may be more what I had in mind rather than attempting to rebrand the Bell Labs Edition
or 9 Front.
