In pcs.freebsd.hackers you write: >> Ditch the daemon thing. >Mark is unfortunately right :-( >The Daemon is an embarrasment on CD covers, >any `professional' image one may ascribe to FreeBSD when talking to companies, I don't think the daemon is going to hurt FreeBSD's professional image. Look at companies like Corel with their balloons, Borland with their pigs and so on. "Hey there's that cute little devil in the sneakers on the CD. Doesn't it look nice". Or do you think that WC's sales are lower than they could be because they use this wizard as a logo? Do BSDI's sales hurt because they use the daemon? I'd think that, au contraire, FreeBSD would be better recognized *for* the daemon.
