    Someone asked for words with greek roots :<br>
    <br>
    In Greece there was a place to meet, to discuss : <br>
    Agora (&#913;&#947;&#959;&#961;&#945;) <br>
    It seems better for the purpose of app-db than market place ...<br>
    <br>
    I know that some company uses a derivative of this word (Linagora)
    and don't know if there are trademarks about other similar words...
    like :<br>
    <br>
    appagora<br>
    applicagora<br>
    agorapackage<br>
    mageiagora (maybe to wide : we may think it's like a forum about the
    whole distribution)<br>
    packagora<br>
    agorapps<br>
    <br>
    magorapps (mixing mageia agora apps)<br>
    <br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if we talk about infos about applications (like in a library) we
    could also use <br>
    appotheque <br>
    applicotheque<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (an hybrid with greek and latin roots built like bibliotheque
    &#946;&#953;&#946;&#955;&#953;&#959;&#952;&#951;&#954;&#951;, sounds like apotheke in german which &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; means
    pharmacy, not too far from mageia)<br>
    <br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A canonical neo-logism would be <br>
    logismikotheque (&#955;&#959;&#947;&#953;&#963;&#956;&#943;&#954;&#959;&#952;&#951;&#954;&#951;) not so easy to understand<br>
    <br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; What with :<br>
    mageiatheque : this allows to play with words as &#956;&#945;&#947;&#949;<span
      class="wording">&#943;</span>&#945; (mageia) means magic,&nbsp; &#956;&#940;&#947;&#953;&#945; (m<u>a</u>gia)
    means spells (like in "I &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; put a spell on you" ; not spelling
    word...)&nbsp; and &#956;&#945;&#947;&#953;&#940; (magi<u>a</u>) means yeast that may be used by a
    cook (who got &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; its name from this word : &#956;&#940;&#947;&#949;&#953;&#961;&#945;&#962; m<u>a</u>geiras)<br>
