I understand the sentiments/history behind this new mailing list, but
this name is too generic - enough to either
*) Not attract people because of lack of a definite meaning conveyed
*) Attract all kinds of unwanted people! (Imagine what meanings can be
   associated with the term 'freeculture' - there are too many types of
   people in this world!)

I suggest the name "opensource" or something like that. Source need not be
source-code only.

2 paise.

PS: I am on this list because of
1] The history of this list
2] The meaning conveyed by the name (although - the name and the character
of the list do not seem to converge quite well, but still...)
