That's not diversity, that's exageration. So you wany a logo with all
the alphabets of the world? Latin, cyrillic, greek, hiragana, "those
thai things", arabic, etc, etc, etc.. Nah... i'd go with a simple
graphic logo. No words. Or go with esperanto. :) Fine, lojban (but i
haven't started learning that one yet - it's on my ever-growing to-do
stack). :p

And why penguins? I think in terms of non-conformity, the platypus
makes much more sense.

There's an interesting topic lurking here, though: support for
translations, UTF-8, internationalization and localization, etc. IMHO,
Devuan should support as vast a spectrum as possible, out of the box.
Even on larger distros i feel the support is a bit subpar.
