without understanding it makes be much more doubtful.
If lots of people, once they looked at the logo, *have* thought "ha, we repeat
what other people say", then we should reconsider it. To be honest, I haven't
thought about it until it was mentioned on the mailing list. Probably because
not all parrots talk and even then they only repeat words but don't mimic (eg.
actions).
I'm sure all of us are open to any other ideas of animals with well-balanced
images (the penguin is one such example, which obviously, can't be used).
