Re: [tdf-discuss] New name

Hi all,

Also a very difficult thing is to find a good name that is not already
registered or trademarked as, unfortunately, most of the names are.

I don't like LibreOffice either, but we went public with that name and
I think the users will get confused if we change the name again.

Just my five cents.
