I tend to agree with both of you here. Let me explain myself  :)

For the WoMoz logo, it is of course definitively interesting if the logo 
can transmit easily - through one way or the other (be it color, shape, 
or whatever) - the idea that it stands for a women-related cause, and 
also that it is related to Mozilla.
However this is not compulsory for your design, and since you guys will 
be the judges for the logos anyway, we'll soon see what prevails: 
aesthetics, signification, both, or... none?!

No, seriously - I can also imagine that a logo that in no way seems 
related to women in free software or to Mozilla, but that looks really, 
really nice and cool, can win.

So if I can give a small advice on this one, I think all should just do 
what they think is more appropriate, and more of all just have _fun_!!!  :)
