What we need is having the flag defined in a vector-format like svg.
Then it can easily be rescaled to any size we were to need. I tried
doing such a thing (attached) but it could be better as my inkscape-fu
is sorely lacking.

The good thing about copyright in this case is that the flag can't be
used for anything, willy-nilly. The bad thing with copyright is of
course that the flag can't be used for anything, willy-nilly. Hmm. maybe
trademarking it would be better.
