Hi,
Well, the best tip I can give is the following GitHut issue:
https://github.com/Xfennec/cv/issues/8
The summary of this is that I'm pleased with the current name, and
think the name conflict is quite unlikely, and is easy to deal with
simple aliases. But in the other end, I'm completely OK with a rename
of the project if a good name is found (short, pronounceable, possibly explicit, …)
Julien.
