Will there be a mascot for Haiku

The best thing about Linux and BSD is that they have cute mascots, tux and that Devil. What would be good for haiku?

    A fat sumo wrestler ;-)
    A Koi (Japanese fish)
    An Orca (eats pinguins)

Will there be a mascot for Haiku

May be the mascot should not be a large or fat one, but a small, agile one. A small mammal, for example.

Haiku won't be a fat system, so why to use a fat mascot?

Sounds like a fine idea to me.
Cheetah, anyone? A cheetah stylized in a Patrick Nagel/Japanese Anime fashion? :?:

Maybe a naked mokey pointing in the direction of the Mascot thread in the Suggestion forum?

How about a beautiful fairy sitting on a leaf with a giant golden fork?

1. Beautiful ... because isn't that what Haiku is?
2. Fairy ... lightweight, fast, nimble : all things you want from an OS.
3. You seem to like leaves :P
4. Fork ... well, it's not a code fork, but it's going to be a feature fork.
5. Gold ... or any colour that isn't red, because FreeBSD/Darwin use red.

I'm not really sure if that's worth deleting... after all, monkeys are always naked... so it'd just be a monkey pointing... but the sarcasm could have been better.

I believe he was referring to this thread:
