Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-4920: ------------------------------------ I agree with Enis, the mean orca looks like it's going to do something nefarious with all your data. That said, the overall design makes it much clearer that it's a whale (versus a few of the more abstract proofs that, as Lars pointed out two years ago, look embryonic). Perhaps the design team can muster an orca in a better mood, Stack? :-) > We need a mascot, a totem > ------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-4920 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4920 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: stack > Attachments: Apache_HBase_Orca_Logo_1.jpg, > Apache_HBase_Orca_Logo_Mean_version-3.pdf, > Apache_HBase_Orca_Logo_Mean_version-4.pdf, HBase Orca Logo.jpg, > Orca_479990801.jpg, Screen shot 2011-11-30 at 4.06.17 PM.png, apache hbase > orca logo_Proof 3.pdf, apache logo_Proof 8.pdf, krake.zip, more_orcas.png, > more_orcas2.png, photo (2).JPG, plus_orca.png > > > We need a totem for our t-shirt that is yet to be printed.
