But why a butterfly? What's wrong with the Camel? Isn't a "camelia" a rose? Am I missing something here?

    What's wrong with the Camel?

    O'Reilly holds the trade mark for the Camel used in connection with the Perl programming language. It's a pity that the most wildly recognized symbol for an open source programming language suffers such legal restrictions. (But to be fair it's O'Reilly that come up with the Camel, to the best of my knowledge).

    Isn't a "camelia" a rose? Am I missing something here?

    Camelia is the name of the Perl 6 mascot, which you can adore on http://perl6.org/.

    Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.

      Yes of course, I forgot it's owned by O'Reilly. A true pity:(

    A camel would be nice. The number of humps might indicate the version ;)
      I've heard of washboard abs but a washboard back?
        A washboard has way more than one or two humps, mmkay
