What about a completely new way of calling the program, keeping the LMMS
acronym?

My idea was:
- LM are the initials of the program new name
- MS are instead the initials of the current version name

The program name might be something like Libre Music (or, using an easy
Italian word, Libera Music, which have the same meaning but is more
interesting than the usual "Libre")

Version names will change whenever we feel like it, and will always have an
adjective starting with M and a noun with S.
Like, Mystical Sound, Masked Sinewave, or whatever.
