Hmm, now if this was Perl or something, that would be HiddenTypeVariables or something. Much less fearsom-sounding.
No, it's cute. Repulsively so.
Right. So giving things meaningful names is "repulsive"? No wonder Haskell has a reputation for being incomprehensible...
At any rate, if we're to have a logo, let's not have one which actively *promotes* the notion that Haskell is complex and difficult and that only theoretical physicists need apply...
I'd like to hold out, again, for the idea that we get a higher-quality community by promoting that notion.
In other words, you want to keep Haskell elitist. Well, if that's what the community in general wants, then fine. Personally, I strongly disagree with this snobbish point of view. But I am only one voice...
Chillax peoples. We'll all be able to vote on logos cute or otherwise in January. Until Dec 31, continue uploading useful suggestions and variants to the submissions page http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_logos/New_logo_ideas
