There was a debate?  Hmmm... I have a vague recollection.  Was it on
Savannah somewhere?

So, you're saying that for consistency, the "nano" in "nano is out of
memory!" should be capitalized, to match the other two occurrences of
"Nano" at the start of a sentence in nano's messages?  Or rather, you
would prefer those two occurrences to be lower-cased?

Since we've already changed that string, and because I prefer the
capitalized version, I would say: let's capitalize nano at the start
of a sentence -- *when* it is not bolded (as in a man page) and not
quoted (as in an info page).
