I've had a thought...

</> - imagine the dash ends being attached to the brackets and you have a
sudo infinity sign.  I'll hash something together based on that.

As tempting as it is to try and design a logo around a box, it's a bit plain.

I like the Apple logo.  It's simple and has character.

I dislike the Windows logo.  But maybe that's just my linuxist nature.  I
think it's too detailed and has little character, and it bears a passing
resemblence to a flag waving in the wind (draw what conclusions you like
from that analogy).

Another idea is 3 overlapping squares (boxes?) that progressively get
larger, something like this crude ascii sketch:
 ___
|  _|___
|_|  ___|___
  | |       |
  |_|       |
    |       |
    |_______|

Make them a palletable red, blue and green... I'll knock that up at some
point today too.

You could possibly even combine that and the <> - put a large <> around
the front-most square.
