As for including it as part of the website branding, or other "official"ness, there'd probably be Nokia to get involved as owners of the Maemo trademark. Best leave that battle for another day, methinks.
Nobody was asking council to mandate anything. I think it was more, should maemo have a mascot, should there be a contest similar to the maemo logo contest. I personally would like to see an official mascot, for the project, but thats up to YOU to get Nokia involved if you think it would be a good idea.

So the question went out to Council, should we have an official mascot? (Not will you make everyone use a Raccoon or a Narwhal)
