Hi ! I think GNOME Arch (Linux) can be more appropiated, because it explain quite well what it delivers :-)
GNOME OS will be more confusing from my point of view, because people can think this particular distro is under the control of the GNOME project or something like, without mentioning that GNOME OS is the "codename" of the GNOME initiative to improve GNOME in serveral areas (developers, testing, etc). My two cents, -- Juanjo Marin PS: And GNOME Arch OS is also confusing because people can think that is a distro for archos.com devices :-) On 12/04/13 13:07, Brett Legree wrote: > Good day all, > > I had a brief exchange with Alexandre of Cinnarch today - if you did > not see my little note on IRC, they are moving to > GNOME http://www.cinnarch.com/important-notice-the-future-of-cinnarch/ and > seeking a new name. > > I thought since a few GNOME users are using Arch that it might be > interesting if this became "GNOME OS". > > Obviously I do not speak for GNOME (as I said in my email to > Alexandre) but I thought I would throw the idea out there and see what > people think. > > So, any thoughts?
