Name change? #48

Hey friends, Derek Featherstone from Simply Accessible reached out to me over concerns about the similarity in naming. I understand his concerns and he's a real great guy, well-respected in the field of accessibility. So I'm proposing (strongly) that we change the name in order to be good neighbors. I bought 2 domains:

The Accessibility Project

This might be a good time too if we wanted to start a Github Organization rather than just a repo under my account. It as much yours as it is mine.

If you have strong oppositions, let me know. Otherwise, I'd like to get started as soon as possible.

Paging @Wilto, @grayghostvisuals, @mattmcmanus, @bryanstedman, @OliverJAsh to the chat room.

It's understandable.

I would go with a11yproject.com - Like the way project feels open and such.

Awesome. Thanks, everyone. This is enough critical mass for me. I'll get these last PRs in, start an Org, and then start breaking :poop:
