Hi, Fully agree with Justin, we from Wayang had the same problem. We renamed the project before we submitted the proposal, and we documented everything. I’d encourage you to find a name which is TM ready in the US, India, CN and EU (if possible). You can’t graduate (or better it is unlikely) if a project name is not protectable by the ASF. And changing the whole INFRA after a podling is voted into the incubator is a huge effort.
