Absolutely. "Correcting" people, especially end users, about the "correct"
name of the program is time consuming, annoying (to both corrector and
correctee), and counterproductive or at least non-productive. Some might
say "then just don't correct them," which is fine, but as long as there is
an "official" name that is different than the spoken name - there will be
those who feel it is imparative to correct everyone who misspeaks
In addition, those who argue in favour of .org often do so on the belief
that correcting people is a great marketing technique.
Correcting people to say .org is not good marketing, it's annoying. And
by definition, it only targets people who already know about the
software and made it as far as joining this list. Not exactly the people
you market to.
/daniel can't believe he just agreed with Chad ;-)
Cheers,
Daniel.
