Khaled, excuse me if I am too much tutorial-like. It is in my nature,
sorry. It does not mean I am right.
I will only post this idea once.

We can call the mailing list any name that describes the solution but
the contents remains the same.
That is quite a strong requirement. It's hard to assume one brings work
at IETF and that initial work stays the same. People would work on it,
there would be suggestions, changes.
As for the email list, here is what happens usually: One requests an
email list, and provides reasons; then email list is created.
But then a very important step happens: the person who requested the
email list waits to see how many people subscribe. It's like when one
creates a web site and waits to see how many people look at it. One can
not forcefully subscribe people to email lists - it is a practice little
appreciated.
If one closes the topic very much (MUST be IPv10), then it is likely
that few people will subscribe. If one opens it a lot (MUST be
something about migration and compatibility between IP versions), then
there may be many people who join.
Given that, how many subscribers would you expect to be on your list?
10? 500?
The industry for sure will understand the new version as it is described
in details what is IPv10 and why number 10.
I am not sure. When someone here invokes industry it's because s/he
knows something about it, so better listen.

Maybe the mailing list should be named after the problem that it
purports to solve, as opposed the solution that Khaled hopes it will
generate.
After all, we have no idea whether the mailing list will generate a
new version of IP at all.
Furthermore, giving the mailing list a name that suggests that there
will be yet another version of IP may confuse the industry.
