I like the icon, but I'm not convinced that the icon or the concept quite fit.

I associate Fedora more with innovation, forethought, design and care,
rather than vastness (in the amount of software, or flexibility), or
specifically with "freedom".

There is already a "Universal Operating System" (with a nice swirl logo
and a well-known emphasis on Freedom), and ultimate flexibility would
perhaps be a Gentoo motto.

Again, the icon is good, but it doesn't really say "Fedora" to me at
all...
