It is intentional. Ivan was converting the original logo to svg and this happened. He liked it enough to keep it

Figured, or some joke

Ah, my guess was he was obscuring the "coding" part in anticipation of changing the name. :)

To expand on what Jimmy said: When I took over stewardship of the community, Steve didn't give me any high-quality source files for the logo, so I just recreated it as an SVG. A few months later, I opened that SVG in a different program, and it choked on the way the first program had structured the text paths. Pure coincidence — I didn't do any additional editing. I like that it's sort of a wry self-comment on the name, and the lite datamosh / pop-art / corporate memphis style. Here's the SVG if anyone would like to put it on a T-shirt. If we do change the name (something I'm still exploring), then yeah, we'll probably need a new logo too. Sadly.
