"elephants never forget" is an English idiom. As i said, we could be
more creative and bold. I even think we could go beyond that
western-centred frame of references, but i'm probably wrong.

Anyway as far as i know, the japanese community dropped the elephant
logo because it has other meanings over there. To avoid any
misunderstanding, they took a turtle instead.

Creating a new, non-mammal logo would re-unify the PostgreSQL branding
and get rid of further cultural interferences...
