Hello, Ben,

As part of preparing to move ovn-heater to ovn-org, we thought it
would be fun to add a logo.

We made one [0] based on your original work as well as third party
work under a different license, and while IANAL, I think this means we
need to ask your permission to license your original work under the
Free Art License, GPLv3 or CC BY-SA 4.0 license in order to be
compatible with the license of the third party work.

What do you think?
