Thanks a lot for your logo proposal. I added it to the list of proposal
on the contest:

https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/logo/#index16h1

> Abstract about the Logo:

> The lizard in the logo takes the place of uppercase the "T" in "Tails"

> Many species of a lizards are capable of disconnecting their tails safely,

I also linked your abstract from your submission. Did you know that we
already have a server named lizard? :)
