Because they don't want to and there's no need to either. The decision will
be made by the admin team and we're currently voting.
FWIW I voted for allowing the use of the logo for promotional material
excluding a Haiku CD. IMHO nobody should distribute an official Haiku
version until we've reached at least alpha state. And yes, I discriminate
between mirroring the daily builds on a server which requires testers to
proactively download them, and pushing CDs to people who might never have
heard of Haiku before.
CU, Ingo
