I'll let the Freemasons know Debian is distributing their Trademarked 
logo and diluting their trademark.

I'm also going to write letters to Duracell, Namco, and Hummer.

I don't think it's right to distribute other people's trademarked images 
as merchandise, even if it's free.  It's fundamentally different than 
reviewing the product in a magazine -- which has a purpose.  The purpose 
of this is to market Debian and entice people to use it using other 
people's trademarked property.

I think the press will be interested to know that in this corner case 
Debian chose to get away with whatever it can get away with until it 
receives cease and desist letters because it thinks no one will enforce 
these trademarks so the risk is small.  Or as I'm sure someone will say 
"there's nothing wrong here" so naturally we can include say the NFL 
logo, right?
