I always wondered what the VLC cone was about. This prompted me to finally look it up. Interesting: On day, people from the VIA association (VIA is a students' network association with many clubs ... amongst those is VideoLAN. More info here : http://www.via.ecp.fr http://www.via.ecp.fr ) came back drunk with a cone. They then began a cone collection (which is now quite impressive i must say). Some time later, the VideoLAN project began and they decided to use the cone as their logo. http://www.nanocrew.net/2005/06/23/vlc-cone/ http://www.nanocrew.net/2005/06/23/vlc-cone/ / http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=9792 http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=9792
