With all the respect to the creator and agreeing with a necessity of new logo, I don't
like the idea of crossed hammers. This symbol has been profanated in former so called
eastern block by communists and it kind of recalls old bad times. It's my POV for
sure, but I guess, there are more people with same feeling.
From the other side, I would imagine something more
appropriate do describe "data tools" than hammers which bring up to my mind
miners, smiths etc... I think I could imagine things like:
* circled T (T for
Tools(erver)-...)
* maginfier (we are looking closer to database, closer to wikis...)
* silouhette of a desktop computer or monitor
* silouhette of an integrated circuit
* generally anything connected to computers/IT which hammers are definitelly not (well,
until we use them as "last tool to repair the broken computer... ;-)) If it really
had to be real tools, I'd prefer screwdriver with wrench such as
