I don't think the name is a significant conflict at all. Debian Etch is a
release codename - regular references to it will fade away as the next
release surfaces, and the Apache Etch name, if it is a successful project,
should last much longer. This would supplant recogn

Etch, it's just that it's an English word, plus there are
several other products with "Etch" in their name.

Henning,
I'd be grateful if you could explain this further.
When I look at the Etch proposal page, it does not seem that Etch is simply about a wire format, so
I am puzzled by your reply. There are some things I'm clearly not getting about Etch.
Yours, Mike.
