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 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.

See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DNA_icon.svg (and the category) for a schema of a double helix. (In DNA, the yellow and green rods come in four kinds each, and each kind of green is always paired with the same kind of yellow.)

DrawingHands.jpg

"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.
