I like KDE Galaxy! KDE Apps Bundle is also fine IMO.

I'm also coming around to the idea that we should do away with the named wrapper entirely and just say "It's KDE apps release day" a few times a year, with greater emphasis on the individual apps names and versions.

+1 on not bikeshedding this to death.

    Hmm, that's a good point.

Inspired by the idea of KDE Galaxy (which I like a lot), I looked at an online thesaurus, and add KDE: Pageant, Splash, Array, Aspects, Particles.

Any other ideas? Otherwise I see no reason not to go with KDE App Bundle, since the release manager wants to change it, and the Promo team likes it as well.

Can we come to a decision rather than bike-shedding this to death?
