Ouch. You may want to rework your polo model, as a "don't" [1] of Fedora
is
there in use - the flag of a country. I think, as ambassadors we should
respect such things more than somebody else at Fedora, and especially when
getting in touch with people all over the world. It can give a worse taste
to us as Fedora Project, as flags are politically dangerous.

I don't think that applies in this case. The flag on this polo is
specifically to represent a country, which uses a specific flag. I'm
presuming the Brazilian flag is there to say, "I am an Ambassador from
Brazil."
If the flag meant, "I speak Brazilian Portguese," then the rule about
flags for languages should apply, right?
