&gt; &gt; As Marcello pointed out, mageia-app-db is not the best name we can find<br>
&gt; &gt; for our application database.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; So let&#39;s try to find one :)<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Some constraints :<br>
&gt; &gt; - preferably a name without &quot;Mageia&quot; in it. Why ? Because this tool could<br>
&gt; &gt; be used for various distributions. Of course, the Mageia instance will<br>
&gt; &gt; have Mageia&#39;s logo and name on it (and we are creating it as a part of<br>
&gt; &gt; the Mageia project), but if someday another distribution wants to use it,<br>
&gt; &gt; it will feel weird to have Mageia in the application name. In fact, I<br>
&gt; &gt; already plan to run instances of the application for opensuse, fedora and<br>
&gt; &gt; mandriva (no, nobody asked me to do it, but it will be easy to do, and<br>
&gt; &gt; this will help me keep in mind that the application must not entirely<br>
&gt; &gt; depend on distribution specific stuff, or only via modules/plugins).<br>
&gt; &gt; - a name with a meaning carrying at least some part of the goals of the<br>
&gt; &gt; application, but without forgetting that it&#39;s still an application (and<br>
&gt; &gt; packages) database.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; What about adding :<br>
&gt; - a name that could inspire a logo<br>
&gt; - a name that is not trademarked<br>
&gt; - a name that is not already used on freshmeat nor as a package on the<br>
&gt; major distro<br>
&gt;<br>
<br>
</div></div>Indeed, that was kind of implicit, but better saying it loud :)<br>
