Those are all English words, so it would just be mumbo jumbo in other
languages, I think.  We'd probably translate it and market it in the
local languages.  I know some Spanish...how does "Fiesta en la Caja"
sound???

Right, we could take an E-mail vote.  I don't know if anyone here has
seen the Freedows 98 project, but they took a vote as to their logo.  We
should take a vote on the name first, then the logo later once someone
can draw up a few to choose from.

Speaking of other projects, I was just surifing the Game SDK project
site last night.  They broke themselves down into separate groups -
graphics, sound, and networking.  We should do something similar ASAP
(though I beleive someone already mentioned it).

Are there any here???

Yep, we're competing against Micro$oft's marketing machine.  Let's not
