That last sketch of a cuttlefish with a hat is really really
good. I vote for that.

PSA: cuttlefish tentacles look more like their face, not
their legs. Please find attached illustrations to that
effect. And also evidence that they are occasionally fancy.
Definitely *not* from a respectable designer or anyone who
could execution a professional logo.
I do think the PMC needs to shepherd this. I would suggest
starting with an approval vote [1] for animal (no plant
ideas?) and then an ASF-style vote to record the validated
result. From there, we can go through more standard design
process.

It's great we're having this discussion and we came up
with a lot of
great ideas through it. However, it is unclear how we
proceed from here.
Certainly, we can't let designers work with an
open-ended discussion on
the type of mascot.
Personally, I'm fine with _any_ kind of mascot, as long
as it is made by
a decent designer. The respectable designer I'm talking
to was very
generous to donate these sketches for free. I don't
think that this is
to be expected at all. Coming back to the original idea
of hiring
multiple designers, I don't see how we will pay those
designers to all
come up with a logo, unless we all donate money.
The sketches I've sent might not look like much because
there is still a
decent process involved in coming up with the final logo
which looks
good in different sizes, possibly with many iterations.
So far I've
tried to incorporate as many of the suggestions here,
but for the sake
of protecting the designer, I think I'll have to stop
doing that. It
simply won't work.
How to proceed from here? I think _any_ professionally
executed logo
will do, this is really more about the community
agreeing for the
greater good. Ultimately, I think the PMC might have to
decide on how to
proceed here.
Cheers,
Max
