"Rulez" has a very negative connotation for me, it reminds me on
crackers and other evil people...

I like the matrioshka (russian doll) and the speeding turtle ideas more
than a skinny tux with a crown, but that's just my personal preference.
I'm not yet sure which of the two ideas I like most...

I hope Marco will perform a poll finally to determine which idea will
become the official RULE logo.

Best regards,
