Indeed i think that Venka is right. OSGeo-live may let people think that all the software inside is part of the OSGeo projects. FOSS4G-live is more correct and clear in this sense. Regarding the name of the conference i have already expressed my view (unfortunately not considered): the important is to define rules that guarantees equity, openess, transparence and that clerly says that foss4g is the OSGeo AGM.
