Leaving aside the naming issues, the proposal is well crafted and you already have three experienced Mentors on board; I don't have any substantive suggestions. The one thing that jumps out is the homogenaity of the initial committer list, which will be an important challenge during incubation. With all five of the initial committers in the same office, it will be vital to emphasize communicating on the dev list so that potential contributors never feel as though they've been left out of the loop. (I'm reminded of Aurora, which entered incubation with 7 Twitter employees as the initial committers[1].)
