Erm... am I the only one that's a little thrown off by the "mascot" in this project?

I'm not fond of the joke right there but alas.

ps: I hope they have org-mode interop.

Gay animals are a part of nature. There is nothing to be offended about.

It's two turtles on top of each other, what's the problem?

It says so in the feature list so I guess they probably do.

No I wasn't expecting turtles humping as soon as I landed on the page either.

About the logo

Why is the logo depicting a pair of copulating turtles?

Ask ams@gnu.org.

What is the name of the turtles?

They are called Fred and George. And yes, they are both male.

Yeah, this needs to be marked NSFW. ;)

But, yes, I too am a little thrown off by it.

I'm not offended at all, just wasn't expecting it. If anything it made me chuckle, it was so out of place, heh.

This reminds me that kame.net has a turtle as a logo, but as an incentive to upgrade, when accessed over IPv6, the turtle is animated. So just be grateful the recutils developers didn't have IPv6 when they were looking for inspiration.
