I do consider RedHat and Fedora non-relevant names. Instead of these names
any other names could be chosen. I think RedHat or Fedora does not convey
any meaning or idea about the nature of what their companies are doing
(developing an OS). At least Ubuntu has its own slogan "linux for human
beings". And they did a good job in making Linux user friendly and usable
for naive users (all humans).

Think about possible names for a Quranic project. I would say zekr, Noor,
Hidayah, Tanzil, or any name which has some logical relation with Quran is a
good option. My question is how much the suggested names are relavant to
nature of our project in the way that the names Zekr, Noor, Hidayah, Tanzil
are relevant to the nature of a Quranic project.

Best,
Mohammad
