stack commented on HBASE-4920:
------------------------------
More +1s. Ok. So Orca it is given votes here and then the endorsements up in
the thread "DISCUSS: We need a mascot, a totem HBASE-4920".
Now for the hard part, which Orca. A few folks like the 'hockey team' emblem.
Lets see if we can get closure on at place holder at least w/o this turning
into "engineers doing design" (almost there).

> We need a totem for our t-shirt that is yet to be printed. O'Reilly owns the
> Clyesdale. We need something else.
> We could have a fluffy little duck that quacks 'hbase!' when you squeeze it
> and we could order boxes of them from some off-shore sweatshop that
> subcontracts to a contractor who employs child labor only.....
> Or we could have an Orca (Big!, Fast!, Killer!, and in a poem that Marcy from
> Salesforce showed me, that was a bit too spiritual for me to be seen quoting
> here, it had the Orca as the 'Guardian of the Cosmic Memory': i.e. in
> translation, bigdata).
