Ummm. Do you know where the project got its name? It's pronounced
moe-noe, not mah-no. Mono is Spanish for 'monkey.' Therefore, I think
a monkey is MORE than appropriate. Besides which, monkeys rock.
The logo doesn't even come close to the look or feel of Ximian's logo.
The only similarity is that there's a monkey on each.
If it comes to a vote, I'm pro-monkey. (although I'm far from
unbiased... see www.fatnsoft.com for more info)
