You may be right. For the same reason Youness said we should formalize the meaning of the acronym amsn, but indeed that might not be enough. Also, because we want to go multi-protocol some day, we may want to get that 'MSN' out of our name. But: there are so many people that know the name 'aMSN' now, will they be able to find us again? Or will a lot of them think 'it seems that aMSN has died...'?
