I think that enough has been said on this subject. Clearly there are
people who believe this image doesn't belong in the Commons, or
doesn't belong as a Featured Picture, or doesn't belong on the Main
Page. And there are people who believe the opposite.
Since the damage (if any) has already been done, let's just agree to
pay more attention to the FP nomination process, or to propose a
different policy for Main Page placement. If there is consensus
on-wiki, then we've solved the problem.
We almost always successfully solve contentious issues on-wiki through
established mechanisms, and I don't see thismas being any different.

Beria brings up a good point...
After a couple hundred replies, I think it's clear that this discussion has trailed
away into irrelevance. Everyone who has replied several times has clearly made their views
known, and so far we've not convinced anyone to change their position.
I'm going to mute this conversation (isn't Gmail wonderful?) and will be taking
any further discussion of the image or Commons Main Page back to Commons were it belongs.
See you on the wiki,
Steven
