People really don't know GNOME they know Ubuntu/Fedora/SuSE etc but
they don't really know the software that runs their desktop. There is

GNOME stands for GNOME nowadays. Only. That's all.
Except, that's not a good answer.
If that's the case, then GNOME can be Gnome or gnome or GnoMe or
whatever. All
Yes. I also think its time to start calling it Gnome.
You can call it whatever you want.

Perhaps we could come up with new words for the acronym. You'd be surprised

I've mailed something only to Dave by mistake regarding some of the
dangers of Re-Branding.
Dave, feel free to forward to list, as it was my mistake on not hitting
reply all.
I pointed before also to Dave the following:

people will ask what it
stands for. And if you answer it doesn't stand for anything, the most
likely answer is that's stupid.
Once more I failed on reply-all.
Trademark establishes the image of the brand, so:
GNOME != gnome
GNOME != gNoMe
GNOME != Gnome
... plus variations you can imagine

At the November hackfest, we briefly discussed and were all enthusiastically
in support of changing the case of GNOME branding from GNOME to Gnome. I
have floated this idea with others over the past few months and haven't
gotten any negative feedback. What about others? Have you discussed this
Hi,
I am very much against this.
Gnome reminds of the the imaginary tiny creatures. At least you can
see GNOME is an acronym, and you can guess it doesn't have anything
to do with those.
If the argument is that the acronym isn't appropriate anymore, I
suggest finding a new a new one.
