I'm heavily considering requesting another rename to Selfie.
"There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things." -- Phil Karlton > Are there any strong objections? My only objection is against the process of name finding. Boudhayan, please choose whatever name you like the most and go with it. Please stop asking other people for objections because you will never reach unanimous assent (not only in KDE, but in any community larger than 1). It's good manner to ask people for their opinion (which you did with the first message in this thread), but once everybody had a chance to make himself heard, you, the thingy's maintainer, have to take the decision (and stick with it). It seems, that you like Selfie the most. So, I suggest that you run with it and stop this thread that's getting sillier and sillier by the minute. ;-) Regards, Ingo
