Maybe I am just too conservative about it. I believe Ruby does not need a mascot. A mascot is something people associate with a product etc. I would hate if a mascot would imply something about Ruby. I prefer people see Ruby for what it is. That said I am not strongly opposed, just slightly, and I do not think that it will matter a lot.
