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