Why should we think to overcome these implications? Why not to have the
mascots?
When I want to be very professional, I go back in my lab and cruise around
the chromatograph for a night or two. With KDE I play. I like playing.
This dragon perfectly completes my well being in the KDE community (and
work).
In fact, I think KDE is one of the most professional things I ever done,
exactly because I do it with passion.
I couldn't care less what this implies to those *some people*. Nobody pays
me for KDE work, so nobody has a say on my professionalism here. I don't
have a product to sell.
Let's play. I *want* to have the dragon, the penguin, the daemon.
Cristian
