no worries. i'm pretty sure we are not fixed on that name. for years we have 
been known as /jump-pilot/ (anybody know why?) and it worked as well. how about 
you work with a private repo in the mean time and we'll deal with name and 
organisation when we are ready to branch which is not going to be tomorrow ;)
