I decided to look up the difference between tortoise and turtles, and
apparently the former are land critters. Plus have elephant style hind feet
to support their high load/ weight among the larger species due to being
land focused.

Quite a convincing plea :)

Yeah I think the old "functional programming is slow" memes died off
about when the rest of the industry went on its JavaScript bender, so I
am not really worried about the negative connotations of turtles.
The positive connotations of turtles sounds very good to me. Besides safety,

In general I'm
Ghc is a turtle. So much super linearity in the code base and very much a
safety oriented tool ;)

The Cat's name should be Hask.

I have no idea who or where it came from, but I loved the owl from BayHac
2013. In my mind, it has always been the Haskell mascot (I was pretty new
to the community in 2013).

Ooh. I'm picturing a cat with its tail wrapped around a lambda, or something
like that. And Simon PJ does have a cat named Haskell who could perhaps be the
model. :)

I'm oddly drawn to the idea of a turtle -- except that turtles are slow. But
animals are cute. Maybe something involving a fox, given that foxes can be
clever? Octopuses are also known to be very clever, but maybe GitHub has
octopuses covered.

Ben, what if we have someone draw a cartoony version of your box turtle? i
feel like that would be a pretty cute logo! totally ahistorical, but would
certainly be cute!

Hi,
Is it a contest for picking up a new logo?
As for me logo "λ GHC" is redundant, because H stands for Haskell and λ here
means Haskell.
So logo should be GλC.

Daniil.

Sounds like a missing font to me. It rendered sans-serif here, but I have
that set as default.

I'm not aware of a serif version and in general I would be hesitant to
introduce one given that:
1. this would break from the precedent set by the current Haskell logo
2. details like serifs tend not to translate
I def like the serif / times new Roman version

Hey Ben,
it may make sense to make a copy of the SVG that has the font turned into paths;
for me it looks different in Firefox, Thunderbird, and eog, probably because I
don't have the font installed.
(This is probably also why the logo is cut off for me in some of them).
Hi everyone,
Recently a sponsor asked for a logo for our project. As far as I know,
GHC doesn't really have a consistent logo; the closest that we have had
is the stylized "GHC" on the top of ghc.haskell.org.
To accomodate the request, I took a few minutes and reworked the
typography of the
