http://www.netbsd.org/Misc/disclaimer.html states that Shawn Mueller owns
Copyright on the image. I tried reaching Shawn at the Email address on that
page, but it bounced back. Can someone send me his current Email address 
privately?

If I need to go to Kirk McKussick for permissions for the final design, I
will do so.

If there's another image that someone would prefer me use, feel free to send
me a link to it. Or, if you've got an idea that's not yet drawn, draw it.
(Here's an idea that an intrepid artist could do for this shirt: a band
of Daemons, each playing their own instrument.) Unfortunately, I can't draw,
so I'm stuck with other people's drawings, and the NetBSD Daemons happened
to be the one I thought about first.

As for a couple of other items: I know I'm missing some of the "experimental"
ports, but from what I've seen in the NetBSD-1.4_ALPHA, the ports I listed
are the ones formally releasing in 1.4. Since I'm going on the "Release tour"
theme, I'd like to stick with released ports. 

I did think about "tour dates", but with our port count, that leads to
a cluttered shirt. Plus, the only fair date would be the build date for 1.4,
and if I do this shirt I'd like to get the design to the maker by May 1
so that it can be to people by May 16. (That's also why I'm using "May 1999".
No use making the shirt obsolete if the release slips a week... :)

Thanks,
David
