Hi, Allow me to add my 2 cents... One of the nice things I always liked about the Linux mascot/logo Tux is the way the logo could be used for more than just being a static image. If you were less creative you could just paste your sub-project on its belly, but I have seen very creative usages of Tux as a mascot (and not just a logo) in various poses, but all of them still screamed 'Linux'. If it was up to me (and it is not) I would aim for a similar thing: A recognizable logo and mascot that can be used in creative ways, yet still clearly signals 'codec2' or 'freedv'. (Imagine the nowherville-amateur-radio-codec2-enthousiasts club creating their own derivative and it should still make sense)
