This is the second offer we get for that. While I'm grateful, it would
be inconsiderate of me not to mention that fact, since we'll only use
one of the logos.

Openness, friendliness and excellence.

World domination (in our niche) through win and awesome.

There needn't be any association at all in our visual identity. In fact,
it's probably better if there isn't one, as they tend to bring lawyers

Firefox. It's a fox that's on fire, encircling the world. That's a cool
logo imo.

Dragons, phoenixes and sex. A logo that can combine those three and
still looks good in 16x16 pixels is a clear winner ;-)

use will be for the board of directors to discuss though, and there's 4
of us.
