We should remove it; it's not DFSG.

For future reference, Kirk's policy is pretty liberal.  The
individuals for personal use grant is above.  His policy for other
uses is:

1) He gets one of whatever the logo is on (t-shirt, whatever), and 
2) He has to judge it to be in good taste.

For example, he told me he would not be happy with a herd of gnus
chasing down a terrified BSD daemon, but a BSD daemon and a Gnu
shaking hands would be just fine.
