Re: [Savannah-hackers] Naming our sourceforge clone (was Re: Savannah and non-GNU software)

[Mike Nugent]

I think we need something more catchy that doesn't sound like it's just 
a clone of sourceforge.  Maybe we should avoid things with "forge", 
"foundry", "smith", etc in the names.  Also, we should probably avoid 
"vault", "safe", because of M$'s "sourcesafe" product.

Some ideas:

softwarehaven.org (kinda sounds like it's protected here)
code-labs.net
softwarelabs.net (i like the 'labs' theme.  it says "we make software here")
codemuse.net (we don't just write code, we write code in haiku (i have 
to try this sometime now))
hack-masters.net (for all your KoDT fans)
code-R-us.net (ok, this one's just silly)
true-freedom.net (as opposed to some -other- movements...)

Obviously, I'm running out of ideas, but you get the picture.
All of these domains were available as of timestamp.
