If I'm repeating, please forgive me. I like this idea, but I'm seeing the Eagle from the mod_perl book in grey with the one feather in color. If so, I like this one. Even without any words. That was the thought, yes. Have a look at URL:http://sjn.nvg.org/mod_perl/watermark/watermark/eagle_with_feather.png for an example... - Salve

Is my mail getting through? Anyway, yes that was the idea. It might look something like this: URL:http://sjn.nvg.org/mod_perl/watermark/eagle_with_feather.png. (The other "watermark" pictures are also there... The previous URL is a bit flakey, so don't use that one anymore.) Conserning whether or not to keep the mod_perl name: Keep the name! Why in the world should we throw away an established brand name? mod_perl is recognizable, it tells something about what it is about, and isn't too "flashy". If we need to say something about the abilities, then let's do that with a logo and perhaps some catchphrase... [Insert image of a high-flying eagle here] "Make Your Server Soar!" All IMHO, of course. - Salve -- [insert english .signature here]

Re: Name: overview
Perhaps, just maybe, it should be Doug's decision whether mod_perl needs a name change?
