We had a lot of "fun" deciding Haskell's new logo, and while I don't agree with the final result, it would be nice if we could now start consistently using it. With that in mind, I realised that the Haskell Platform's logo is totally different, and did a quick mock up of a version reflecting the current Haskell logo. It needs someone with the original vector graphics to have a play and improve it a little bit, but hopefully you'll se a concept you like.
I rather like the fact that the Haskell Platform logo is distinct from the Haskell logo. I think it helps prevent confusion (even though the Platform logo is based on one of the Haskell logo competition entrants).

By the way, when I came to replace the Haskell logo on the wiki site, since the colours had not and still have not been officially decided on, I just picked the same colours as the Haskell Platform logo. So for the time being, there is a visual link between the two logos.

For anyone concerned the Hackage icon (http://hackage.haskell.org/favicon.ico) is still the old blue lambda, not the sparkling new icon (http://haskell.org/favicon.ico).
That's on a different machine. See http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell.org_domain for which machine does what. -- Ashley Yakeley
