Yes, the executable name is one issue, I agree upnp-igd or something even better
would be better than upnpd. IGD is just one area of upnp so maybe it's too
general name to give unless we want IGD to be much more general upnp daemon. But
my main reason for harmonization was the complaining about "linux-igd virus
taking over my windows xp network connection". It should be very clear from the
visible name that a) linux-igd is not a virus and b) linux-igd is not running on
client computers.

No one had updated the website when doing 0.95 release by the way. I wrote a
small entry there, hopefully it will give better image for visitors. But the
situation looks very nice now, I should also try to get some time for some
cleanups. And I can vote subversion as well, just don't know how sourceforge's
subversion situation is doing currently.
