Perl 6 is more than just the test suite. It's a language
specification, a reference parser, a test suite, and perhaps a
reference setting implementation. All of the things about the
language that are not tied to a particular implementation are part of
"Perl 6".
Rakudo is a particular implementat

If we're combining logos, it'd help if they have some kind of coherence

I like the "Camelia" it's colourful, fun - it even has an embedded, sideways
reference to a "Camel".
But IMHO there is a need for three logos:
1. Combined Parrot + Rakudo
I like the suggestion of having cartoon "speech bubbles" around the Parrot
that contain favicons of the language icons (e.g.,

I would agree; have a professional do it and we'll probably get bett
to further comment, I would never believe a logo actually influences
which programming languages one chooses to develop in ... but I would
argue that a logo needs to convey the right 'messages' to those who
pay for software projects ... as with any logo; my point is to
identify these messages prior
