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:
                           
+------------+

+------------+         +----------+
