Maybe they are on one of our other numerous lists?

I like this proposal, although I haven't given the whole subject much
thought.  It's a bit discomforting to have all the restrictions and
fine print that previous versions of the logo proposal had.  On the
other hand, people shouldn't use it inappropriately.

This would give people who just want to provide a link, or something,
a nice easy way to do it, while restricting other more 'specific' uses.

Sort of me-tooish, but..anyway..:-)
