Yes. Koha is a word, not an acronym. This is why KOHA is wrong, unless you are attempting to shout the awesomeness of it. ;) Nope - it is just best practice to ensure that users know of the product. By the way - why is there a koha-community and a koha out there. Very confusing. On 22

Greetings, As of Koha 3.4.x debian packages were available. That's just over 2 years ago. Koha has progressed so much further. Tarballs are not the recommended installation method for debian-based versions of linux (e.g. Ubuntu). Much nicer and more current installation instructions are
