IP based limitations are a terrible idea. Multiple users can be and often are behind the same IP if they're in some sort of intranet, be it corporate, academic, or simply multiple home computers. Mail-based authentication can be screwed with, sure, but it's also very easy to notice this (as

G'day all. Quoting Sebastian Sylvan : Personally I find the current logo horrendous. I think it's ugly and intimidating at the same time. I don't really care too much which one of the proposals should win, just so long as I can weed out some of the ones I really hate. I guess this is one diff

Wonderful, Paul. Could you add your list of adjectives to the wiki page. Note that the initial "deadline" was Dec 31, after which time we can filter out dupes and narrow down the logos to about 5 or so different directions to have a vote on. Anything you can do to help direct or improve quality is

[Haskell-cafe] The Haskell re-branding exercise

A call has gone out for a new logo for Haskell.  Candidates (including a couple of mine) are accumulating here.  There has also been a long thread on the Haskell Cafe mailing list. I've lived through a couple of corporate rebranding exercises in my time, and I've read about some others.  They
