Why is it called Python? Apart from being a computer scientist, I'm also a fan of "Monty Python's Flying Circus" (a BBC comedy series from the seventies, in the -- unlikely -- case you didn't know). It occurred to me one day that I needed a name that was short, unique, and slightly mysterious. And I happened to be reading some scripts from the series at the time... So then I decided to call my language Python. But Python is not a joke. And don't you associate it with dangerous reptiles either! (If you need an icon, use an image of the 16-ton weight from the TV series or of a can of SPAM :-) """ And while I'm at it, I hope I can say without offending anyone that I hope the logo is open for critisism. Few (if any?) python species look that green, making the logo looks more like an adder. And I think the more majestic python species are cooler on a logo, anyway ;) If whoever makes the logos wants, I can go visit the small reptile-zoo around the corner from where I live and snap some pictures of the Pythons they have there (they have great Tiger-Pythons, including an albino one!)
