The leap to any particular SQL Server? The leap to becoming or the leap
of data transfer?

The two fingers in the V shape need to be a bit thicker. ;-)

Should the text really read 'Anything they can do we can do better?'

I don't think there's anything wrong with the current logo, and I don't
see a way to easily encapsulate the project's purpose in a logo. I do
think the main page could do with a quick diagrammatic attempt at
encapsulation.

Typical use:

+------------+ +-------------+
| Open | | Microsoft |
| Source |-------| SQL |
| Web Server | | Server |
+------------+ +-------------+


Or for the more abstract software layer approach:

+------------+
| |
| PHP |
| |
+------------+ +----------+
| |
| ctlib |---+
| | |
+------------+ +----------+ |
| | |
| DBD::Sybase| |
| | |
+------------+ +----------+ | +----------+
+----------+
| | +----| | |
|
| dblib |--------| tdslib |-------| TCP/IP
|
| | +----| | |
|
+------------+ +----------+ | +----------+
+----------+
| | |
| SQSH | |
| | |
+------------+ +----------+ |
| | |
| odbc |---+
| |
+------------+ +----------+
| |
| |
| |
+------------+


Diagrams made using artist-mode in emacs, all just click and drag.
Monospaced mail font expected.
