[OH-Publicity] PyCon 2015 - Print Program Deadline - OpenHatch - February 2nd

We can go ahead and use this for now, but we should have a discussion about
what our default logo should be in situations like this.  I've expressed my
dissatisfaction with the "two circle" logo before, but can do so again if
people would like details.  Even if it didn't have those issues, I feel we
ought to use the penguin logo wherever possible, as thanks to Karen's hard
work it is both recognizable and affection-inducing.  Uncountable people
have asked me for Sufjan stickers, including folks who know nothing about
FOSS.  Unsurprisingly, I've never had anyone ask me for a sticker of the
two circle logo.
