I think rounded is a much more unifying design; it fits not just with the Fedora logo font but also the MgOpen Modata font design too, and seems thematically joined with the Infinity logo and many of our other collateral designs like the FUDCon logo. I also know that while I was originally a proponent of the use of an exclamation mark '!' in the word "remix" to provide more cowbell, my discussions with legal folks since then indicates that might not be a wise move. If people start writing "Fedora Rem!x" in general text as opposed to "Fedora Remix," there's the risk of brand erosion. Using the "remix" word without the exclamation mark doesn't involve that risk, so as much as I hate to stick my nose in here, we may have to put the kibosh on that particular design detail. :-\ Sorry I introduced that concept into the mix -- sometimes my idle ideating is too much too soon! -- Paul W.
