Seems there are some questions here that go totally unanswered:

* Where was this contest started?
* Who decided we needed a redesign of our mascot?
* Who was informed of this (outside the forum?)?
* Who decides this will be used for the whole KDE?
*What is the target audience for this mascot?


Before calling each other names and use strong words, could we answer
all these questions, please?

Since all KDE would be affected by this redesign, should't at least
all eV members and the wider community have a say?

FWIW: I can totally imagine this be a mascot for KDE Edu, but I have
serious doubt it is suitable for KDE as a whole, the business oriented
part of KDE in particular.

Since KDE is the community and IIUC this redesign of our mascot is
meant to represent KDE as a whole, please do not take any decisions
without communicating this a tad better than the whole other renaming
and rebranding disasters...

In other words: don't change the mascot until all the above questions
are answered and the community is consulted.
