I agree with Philippe on this one. A sensible, and easily understandable, motto
like "The world speaks Unicode" would be much better. The word "savvy" just
sends a shiver of embarrasment down my spine. Not only is "savvy" not a word
that is probably high in the vocabulary list of non-English speakers, but I
don't think many native English speakers would ever use it by choice (maybe it's
just me, but I really loathe the word).

And for what its worth, the logos are definitely NOT snazzy (hmm, don't like
"snazzy" either, though I can't think of a better alternative).
