Gabriel, Grow up. It is pretty clear that few are interested in seeing a name change and I personally like how OpenIndiana connects things back to the roots of Illumos. If you do not like it, you are free to start your own distribution and call it whatever you like. Now if you wanted to cont

LuminOS (or some variation thereof, LumiOS) seems to me to be an obvious contender. Shortens to Lumi. Follows on from (perhaps too closely) Illumos. On 10 October 2010 03:15, Gabriel de la Cruz wrote: > ERRATA: indiana, not indina :-P > I dont disturb again... > :-D > > > On Sat, Oct 9, 2010 at 7

Hello, Jesus, nice hint, Polaris sounds very nice as a brand, but I am afraid the patent office wont let us make a trademark for an OS with that name, as there is only 1 letter difference... that will be acceptable if we choose different classes of goods to be named with it, we could name whatever

Initially it was said that "the community" didn't get a chance to provide input, which turned out not to be true. Several of us pointed out reasons why a name change right now would be a bad idea. Nobody for the name change rebutted those reasons. Can we move on from style for now and work on su
