as far as googlish or newbie understandable naming stands, i dont think we
need to look into it to that extent that we decide what the name of Fedora
to be changed to...
Fedora is the most popular distro these days and people will get educated

Are those apps you mentioned in "Debian GNU/Linux"? I believe they
