Having said that here's my idea: Basically, the perl community has largely adopted TIMTOWTDI as a philosophy (as well as DWIM, but that's harder to model). For that, a cluster of arrows in different directions seems fitting: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yy_uiqKCf0Q/RcEfrHZ_0hI/AAAAAAAAAB8/Mk1xayjGaSQ/s1600-h/arrows3.jpg http://www.sxc.hu/photo/1060296 http://www.sxc.hu/photo/659267 I personally like the idea of the last one (retains geek cred). [warning: light-hearted humor ahead] There's also the notion that perl6's scope has creeped to accommodate a large enough set of ideas.
