Hi all
Sometime ago there was a discussion on a Zope mascot. I've found something on the german site "wisse.de". It seems that Zope is some kind of carp (the fish!)...

Great: what we really need in the OSS community is more fish maschots like http://www.openssh.org/ or http://www.wincvs.org/ or even http://pgpdist.mit.edu/FiSSH/index.html. How about http://www.vanabel.com/roothtmls/vol101.html.

Well, I just had to, didn't I? :-)
ROFLMAO... That fish looks like it's dead. So now Zope is a dead fish?

Our designer did this for me, because, after all, Guido (my hero and role model) *does* work for Zope Corporation. http://www.realloc.net/~dereks/zopefish2.jpg Guido, if you're ever in the Seattle area and need a place to "relax", let me know. Maybe we need a "fan art" site on Zope.org? Hehe... --Derek

Well, I assume it was when they took the picture that I based the drawing on, so yes, it is dead. :-) I simply have no artistic skill whatsoever. But it was fun anyhow.
hi, zope is different and so should be the mascot. in my opionion zope's strength is the community-approach. so why don't have a group of friendly animals... something like a ZOOpe? --maik

From my PoV, we *ARE* a group of friendly animals.

Just a quick idea: How about some kind of competition to make/find/describe the best mascot...?

I don't know about you, but I think that a bunch of dancing elephants are best. What about http://www.zope.org/Members/caelum (It is based on a clipart I found but I think that it is ok to do this, but I'm not sure. If anyone have any input let me know!)
