The idea wasn’t mine. Darrin Thompson posted this to the mailing list:

```auto

\ \ \ \ ------------

   / / / \ --------

```

which I thought was hot. So I made two images that were based on it:

For what it’s worth, the `&gt;&gt;=` operator and lambda calculus/functions are really important in Haskell. The other ideas for a new logo are all [on the Haskell wiki](http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_logos/New_logo_ideas).

I’m completely open to suggestions.
