Emmanuel, the new upstream maintainer said as of now he has no opinion
but he agreed zim-wiki was first to use name zim.

That's true. Given that this is a library a name change can lead to

project depends on this lib though) any way that's my thinking but I
will leave it to upstream to decide (Emmanuel is CC'd)
