[Unison-hackers] Logotype design

[Benjamin Pierce]

I agree with Alan: The first version is not quite perfect (finding a  
way to have two arrowheads would be more suggestive), but the second  
version is a bit bottom-heavy and in the "real 3d" version the arrows  
seem somehow too sharp.

It would be great to have a more "designed" icon for Unison.  (Have  
you already tried compiling your new versions into the Unison  
sources, to make sure that is going to be easy when the time comes?)
