GroundWork Open Source is sponsoring a competition amongst four popular open source mascots: “Tux” the Linux kernel penguin, “Beastie” the BSD daemon, Mozilla’s Firefox, and “The Gnu” GNU.
The purpose of the competition is to drum up excitement around famous, non-commercial open source icons and to determine which is the favorite in the minds of today’s most dedicated open source fans.
The competition will begin at 7:00 AM EDT on Tuesday, August 5 and will end at 11:59 PM PDT on Thursday, August 7.
