Ah yes, another thing of course.
I see that the flag is dark orange, ok, let's name it a shade of red. 
And distinctly pointing the _left_.
Do you intend to express that society ought to storm to the left under 
the red banner?
Surely a lot of people would object to that.  So, not only have you 
called upon you the holy wrath of the religious fundamentalists with 
that dreadful rendering of Satan himself, now you have the entire 
conservative establishment against you with your thinly veiled challenge 
for international communist uprisal.  Of course, most people always 
suspected that open source is just a communist ploy.

I therefore recommend that the logo be modified as follows:

  * Change the color of the flag to an unproblematic shade of gray. But 
make it neither too light nor too dark a shade, in order not to
incite racial hatred.

  * Make the flag fly exactly centered, so as not to indicate any 
political affiliation.  (Might be a bit tricky but that's the deal with 
political correctness.)

  * Despite your efforts of centering it, don't make the flag hang like 
a floppy wet towel, lest you be accused of demoralizing patriotism, and 
working for the terrorists.

  * Make the flag pole a lot shorter.  Maybe replace it with something 
different.  This is nothing but a sexist phallus symbol.

  * Replace the historically burdened (Satan logo software, etc.) 
"NetBSD" name by the less problematic "NetFoo".

  * Finally replace "NetFoo" by "AlFoo", to pay credit to Al Gore, the 
man who invented the Internet.
