Some animal that hides
stuff?
A squirrel?
Or just a nice animal,
OK, that rules out a squirrel: it is essentially a rat with good PR.

Perhaps it's just PR, but they seem to live in better

Unfortunately I think people associate masks with having something
(negative) to hide. Perhaps people shouldn't see it that way but they
seem to do so.
I think as a mascot some kind of animal is better, because it might be

Assuming that there *should * be a mascot, the discussion seems to
concentrate on the secrecy aspect of GnuPG. But what about the
other aspect -- assertion of identity? Does that spark any ideas?

How about an Octopus? As I understand it, they like to try and open

First -- yes, I would love to see Terry the Tinfoil-Hatted Terrapin
become our mascot. We've got a very businesslike logo; a mascot is an
opportunity for playfulness. And what better way to poke a little
good-natured fun at ourselves?
Second -- okay, if the Tinfoil-Hatted Terrapin strikes a

Hi,
A project mascot is certainly a great idea. In my opinion a mascot and a logo
have different purposes and can beautifully complement each other. The logo
stands for the product and has to follow certain rules in its design. A
mascot, on the other hand stands more for the whole community
I was going to suggest a hedgehog (it's likeable, generally favours security
over speed, and knows to protect itself), but a terrapin sounds great. Now I

Your etymology may be correct, as well as the common usage; but in
zoology a turtle is an animal that lives only in the water, a tortoise
is an animal that lives only on the land, and a terrapin moves between
the two.
