Comment 22 for bug 755189

Actually choosing the right name for a project is the most difficult part of it, because a good name is what makes people remember that product or not.

It is clear that Canonical was not going to allow "Gubuntu" for their trademark policies. So, let's think what are others doing. We have "Linux Mint" which is based on Ubuntu, though now is moving to Debian in some of its spins. There is Trisquel, also Ubuntu based.

Main issue here is support for the Remix team. I mean, is the team going to be able to last in the years to come? How? Linux Mint gets money somewhere, Trisquel is University based. So when finding a good "name-brand", there is a need for continuity in the project. It is going to be a different "distro" as stated in Distrowatch, so a stable team is a must or at least, a stable core team.

For the name, I once thought of "umannos" as an acronym of "h-uman new os", in fact, "www.umannos.com" is registered, but I would be willing to give it to the project for free, nothing in exchange. And even have some logos I could share here so you check them out.

Let me know if you are interested.

Regards.
