I am not a great fan of Camelia (which is supposed to be a software bug, ha, ha, I've read somewhere) either, I agree it looks a bit childish, but, come on, we can't judge a product according to its logo, this would be somewhat silly.

And, although I am no fan of it, I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with it and I even used it for several tutorial articles in French I wrote on Perl 6 (such as this one: http://laurent-rosenfeld.developpez.com/tutoriels/perl/perl6/regex-grammaire-puissance/).

Having said that, you might want to come up with an alternative. After all, the camel is much better known than the official onion as a symbol for Perl 5 (and I am not sure that I like very much either the camel or the onion either, BTW).

I can understand very well that you don't like Camelia, but is this really important? Give the language a test and and give some feedback, whether positive or negative, that would, IMHO, be more useful.
