Nice to hear that not all users believe into the imo stupid idea to change the
name. I don't think either that the "board of directors" of lazarus (Michael H.,
Matthias, Marc, Vincents, Micha et al.) consider a name change :)
Just for the record, I also think a name change is uncalled for. A name change would have serious consequences - and we could start promoting everything from zero since the new name will be even less known then Lazarus. The word Lazarus is neither offensive or more ambiguous than other well known projects and companies.

One more comment: Cheetah is the simbol of FPC, not lazarus. A cheetah on a column is Lazarus. Now you don't see anyone calling FPC cheetah, nor calling Linux Pinguin.
