We can provide a URL off onshore.com if that would help.  Let me know.

I'll let Raul fill that out, but I'm not above putting some words in 
my co-worker's mouth.  Small para to be added:

Regarding the selection of his logo by the Debian project, Raul said,
"I'm very pleased that we're able to give something back to the Debian 
community.  We've been very happy with Debian GNU/Linux, and have been 
working with it internally, and for our clients, for a number of years
now."
