That probably needs explaining for me to understand. :-/
Nomic is an extremely geeky game,where altering the rules is the only
move you can make (at least, at first).
http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/nomic.htm is the creator's home page. My
suggestion was a joke, of course :)

Looked okay to me. Personally, I prefer "British" also. Generally,
organisations tend to name themselves that way, so we have British
Airways and British Telecom and so on, not UK Airways and UK Telecom.
AirUK?
There's an AirUK?
Ah well, exception that proves the rule and all that... ;)
You suggested the British Association for the Freedoms of Software.
That's a good name, though I'm not sure whether freedom should be
plural. I also like "British Association for Software Freedom", but
there's not much difference.
There are plural freedoms. I'm also unsure about "Freedoms of
Software" as against "Software Freedom", but I think we might get a
bit of trouble if we try to call ourselves BASF. ;-)
Heehee, that's true.
While I'm posting anyway, I'm sure that everyone will be pleased to here
that I now have Linux sitting in another partition on this box. As soon
as I can get the modem working I'll prove it with headers :0)))
