>From a trademark POV, all the suggested names suffer from the major problem of incorporating the trademark in the name. (see AOL v GAIM) I know in this situation it is relatively safe to assume the trademark holder isn't hostile, but I would still think it would be very desirable to have a name that doesn't technically infringe the trademark. Unfortunately I don't have much in the way of alternatives to offer, I'm not particularly good with coming up with names. ThinWM? TinyParticle? TilingMadeSimple? Quirk? (Told you I was terrible.) Tumov, I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks for creating ion3 and making it available. I've been an ion3 user for 3 years now, and I don't plan on stopping anyttime soon.
