On top of that, even the gesture shown by the mascot (the palm, fist, a 
finger, two fingers, a circle, anything) will be considered offensive in 
some part of the world, so I learned a few years ago when OpenOffice.org 
selected a mascot [1].
So my personal policy is to ignore this, I am going to put the mascot in 
some indecent positions for my own use anyway.
