Re: [Mentalunix-developers] Re: name [Yahoo! Clubs: mentalunix]

[Clinton E. <men...@cr...>]

Not voting yet. But my suggestion is:
mLINUX
The m can mean anything:

mental
minimal
meow
m
mLINUX

mLINUX seems to me to be the best name ever. MentaLINUX is just a bit 
confusing(if we ever got a domain...well, we'd need mentallinux.org, 
mentalinux.org, etc). With mLINUX, everything is good.
