Hello all,

An archive which apparently contains the source 3D models used to render old good Konqui (which it seems was not lost to time after all) has just been discovered :-D

https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/kde/devel/konqi_sdk.tar.bz2

I think it might come useful for somebody who wants to create a new 3D mascot for the contest based on him (I remember Hunter wanted to do something like this).

We certainly don't want an argument with KDE over the mascot, but somebody said that the old Konqui is too different from the new one. I'd say that if we were to base the mascot off this Konqui, we should differentiate it at least a little from Konqui and obviously change the name.
