I'm in favor of getting rid of Hexley. Never liked him. The goal of MacPorts should be to eventually appeal to any Mac user, and I don't feel that the image of a thing with devil horns and a pitchfork, no matter how cute or how lovingly rendered in Aqua style, is appropriate. :-/
Maybe it's because that the operating system itself has a userland that is largely based on another such project with a mascot that has horns and a pitchfork... Then again nowadays maybe the Dodo would be a better symbol for the Darwin OS ? And there is always the "Hmmm. Interesting. See, we was just wondering why it is you have the lord of darkness on your chest there." * None of this matters much to MacPorts, of course. --anders * see http://www.lemis.com/grog/whyadaemon.html
