I share the sentiment. Steve spoke to me before sending this message,
and he also speaks for me, the release manager of Freenet. Also David,
Florent, and xor disagree strongly with the renaming plan. These are
most of the non-anonymous core developers of Freenet.

And the actual Freenet community that communicates on Freenet via FMS
and Sone is absolutely enraged over this.

Best wishes,
Arne
