The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce a public competition to design a new Project logo. Entry to the competition is open to all individuals.
The FreeBSD Project is a team of individuals from all corners of the globe who volunteer time and expertise to develop the FreeBSD operating system.
The FreeBSD operating system (FreeBSD) is the operating system for PCs which is derived historical BSD, the version of UNIX developed at the University of California, Berkeley. FreeBSD is used as a base for Apple's Mac OS X, famous Web servers and backbone routers in the Internet. FreeBSD is available free of charge, and comes with full source code and liberal license.
Historically, the FreeBSD Project have used a characterized daemon as a mascot, and displayed it on our web site with the text "FreeBSD" as our logo. This character sometimes treated with misinterpreted in the religious and cultural context.
And this daemon character seems cute from somebody's point of view, but somebody may think which does not suit for the professional products to indicate that are using the FreeBSD inside.
So, we decide to call for a new logo design which is identifiable as the Project's logo, can be used on the professional products, and is very cool :-)
