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.

I think the OSGeo-Live project that you are leading can be safely
(re)-named as
FOSS4G-Live as it has a wonderful array of software projects that are not
under the OSGeo umbrella as yet.

+1 for "OSGeo conference".
Adding a perspective from someone who marketed FOSS4G 2009.
Creating a marketing message is all about minimising words used, because
"less words get read more".
When explaining FOSS4G to people outside our community you need to use:
"international conference for Free and Open Source Software for
GeoSpatial (FOSS4G), presented by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation
(OSGeo)."
vs
"international Open Source Geospatial (OSGeo) conference"
This is a good question to put to the charter members for a vote at some
point.

Yes, you and I and everyone *on this mailing list* knows
the difference and the relationship between OSGeo and FOSS4G. But
there are people out there in geospatial who don't know either.
Emphatic +1
