Funny, it actually USED to be on wikipedia, with an article explaining
the joke and the logo. It was linked from either the WalterCon
article, or the Haiku article (or both, i don't remember).
In any case, it appears to be gone now - which suggests that the great
wikipedia maintainers must have considered it useless.
