<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap:break-word; font-family: monospace">The discussion about names seems to often lead to the point that trying<br />to encompass everything relevant in a name and/or byline leads to<br />long names that could be as much of a problem in future.<br /><br />A name that does not contain too information might be the answer. I think<br />the points about meaningless brand names like "Sony" or "Epson" are strong.<br />By analogy to "libre planet", what about "libre australia". A transition<br />from linux-aus to libre-aus might minimise the pain of rebranding, avoid<br />the difficulties associated with the words "open" and "free", and the<br />abbreviation LA would still apply.<br /><br />Dave<br /><br />-- <br />David F.
