Ouch. You may want to rework your polo model, as a "don't" [1] of Fedora is
there in use - the flag of a country. I think, as ambassadors we should
respect such things more than somebody else at Fedora, and especially when
getting in touch with people all over the world. It can give a worse taste
to us as Fedora Project, as flags are politically dangerous.
