So if we name the project "Fajr" for example, and make the slogan "Linux for the Ummah", would that be OK ? > Think about possible names for a Quranic project.

I do agree that a name "would better be" relevant to the project, I just want to say, that it is not always possible, and maybe not really necessary to be relevant in a direct manner. Anyways, I object to the "MuslimOSSP" name, because that won't be easy to pronounce for non-english (and latin-based language) users. Imagine an arab, persian or urdu talking person trying to say OSSP. -- أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) Digital design engineer GPG KeyID: 0x9DCA0B27 (@ subkeys.pgp.net) GPG Fingerprint: 087D 3767 8CAC 65B1 8F6C 156E D325 C3C8 9DCA 0B27 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntume.team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntume.team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
