It looks like the project already has a Twitter account and a logo [1]. One thing to keep in mind is how difficult it can be to re-brand something after a brand has been established.
IMHO, it would be best to figure out a viable name as early as possible to avoid having to re-brand later in order to graduate. Based on this and other threads, it seems entirely possible that the board may not accept "Mysos" as a TLP name. -Taylor [1] https://twitter.com/apachemysos > On May 30, 2015, at 11:21 AM, Chris Aniszczyk <caniszc...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Personally, I would let the project decide how to move forward with the > name than a bunch of us who aren't trademark lawyers.
