As per someone else's comments a while back, I'd be wary of associating the
product with the 'enterprise'. It may be a great marketing ploy, but its
downsides outweight its upsides It may be a great 'in joke/association', but
this in itself is unlikely to gain commercial (brace yourself) 'mind-share'.
Indeed the 'enterprise' association may well distance the rest of the
crucial Open-Source/free-thinking community.

Perception is reality!
