For what it's worth, the RedBull logo is currently used in the scene model
database to decorate the "redbull air race" pylons. We also have two
aircraft in git that also have RedBull logos.
These are just the instances I found in a 2 second search because they had
"redbull" in the file name. There could easily be other uses of it in
places with different file names ... that would be a bit harder to find
without examining each image in our database individually.
I'm sure these known usages of the redbull logo are actively being scrubbed
right now??? If not, it sure makes all of this rhetoric sound pretty
hollow. Hmmm, I just did a git pull and they are still there. I guess no
one is moving too quickly on these existing infractions.
I don't mind a healthy debate, but so far this whole thing has smacked of
inconsistency at best (assuming the purest motives of everyone involved and
that no one is speaking out of anger or frustration here.)
Best regards,
Curt.
