You would be surprised. I've got a ton of marketing and advocacy ideas waiting to happen and each will make use of the maskot.
Hopefully public projects (I've got a few in the works of my own already beyond Gnoga) will use it as well. I am sure the donors and others sympathetic to the project will incorporate into their sites and projects.
I know that there will be certain entities that are unlikely to use the mascot (or any other ideas) the community produces. However I and others may be willing to put some dollars to plushies and other things to give out at some events like FOSDEM. (obviously this one is too close)
I put in the request on the FOSDEM mail list to announce the mascot contest. I hope they will.
