Hi
+
+My preferred logos in order of preference:
+
+    1) http://www.flickr.com/photos/mondze/5021120343/
+    2) http://www.flickr.com/photos/54316230@N06/5141934927/

+
+I like the simplicity of #1, #2 and #3.  I think the simplicity of the
+lines and colours is important, especially considering the logo may be
+reproduced on various mediums.
+I like the lines of #1, seems to symbolise forking and as such a key
+principle of FOSS.
+
+I'm conflicted over #2, I like the concept and imagery which ties in
+with the name.  I also like the simplicity of the logo and the fact it
+seems easily recognisable under differing colours.  However I find
+that the logo feels to similar to the Windows logo, given the 4
+quadrant design and the 4 colours chosen.  I think that this logo with
+only one icon or with the icon in a single colour would be more
+suitable and hence my conflicted thoughts.  I'm tied between liking
+and disliking this option.  With a little development of the design,
+this would be my first choice.
+
+Well, that is my thoughts.
