Hi all,

The mascot by itself is an awesome design and work ( all variants ),
however i personally feel that long term fans of NetBSD are here because
they already love the project.
Maybe the idea is to get the attention of more people in a specific target
group. What would they consider cool and interesting to try ?

Regards,
Nikolay
