Martin,

You can use the ISOs as long as you follow the terms at
http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/license.html.

Use of the daemon mascot requires that you obtain permission
from Marshall Kirk McKusick, as per the entry at
http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/daemon.html.

The "spacehopper" logo should be considered off-limits for now,
as we are still awaiting legal work regarding it.

We would appreciate it if you contributed a percentage of the proceeds
to the FreeBSD Foundation (http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/) in order
to help with further work, but you do not have to.

As another poster pointed out, please don't call FreeBSD Linux; it's
a different beast altogether.
