Late to the party here, but I'm wondering whether we can enlist someone with 
graphic design experience to create a more iconic logo for the compiler. I use 
the word "iconic" deliberately: it should both be recognizable, and in the 
shape of an icon (that is, more square). The Haskell logo does this 
wonderfully, but I think Ben's proposal just appends GHC to that.

My own preference would be to retain a connection with the Haskell logo (as 
Ben's submission does), but that needn't be a hard requirement.

Thanks,
Richard
