It would be great to have logo, to be able to print tshirts and do other things with it.
This page should collect proposals, until we find a good one. Where good means: is a good logo (can be resized, works in one color, etc - search the web for "good logo design" and read a few of the many results) and conveys the idea of the project (eg. should visualize/represent: "one source, several builds, several identical results", but other ideas/messages are certainly possible…).
Also, we actually need to two Logos: one for Reproducible Builds and one for Debian Reproducible Builds, which should probably be the logo plus the swirl

- a circle divided into 3N sectors (= pie chart), where each N consecutive sectors are the same color.
- 1 color = 1 build
- N sectors the same color = N builds the same output

A double helix.
Rationale: each strand of the double helix can be used to completely reproduce the other. Also, DNA is somewhat analogous to machine code.
#0xb
"drawing hands" -- nerdy M.C. Escher reference, reproducible builds build each other. I don't know how to make it into a proper logo, though.
Suggestion from dkg, hopefully more graphically-inclined people can make it better.
TODO
- link more existing proposals here
actually turn these ideas into actual logos
