Well that's true. I once had a mail about an article I wrote in Linux Journal 
about Nepomuk saying we should change the name because Hitler's mother's 
maiden name was Nepomuk (I never checked if that was true)

That could be an argument for not putting political logos on software 
frameworks ;-) Seriously though, I'm more bothered about the use of the 
Android logo - I don't know Google's trademark rules on that and maybe Bogdan 
has some special permission, but perhaps it's own logo would be nicer anyway.

We'll see what Bogdan thinks.

Cheers,
Stu
