DSLR needs a new name #38

Closed dimkr closed 10 years ago

dimkr commented 10 years ago

DSL's developer doesn't like this name, because it might confuse users: DSLR is an independent project.

Any suggestions?

dbohdan commented 10 years ago

Off the top of my head:

HSL — "Helluva Small Linux" or "Hella Small Linux"
RLSD ("DSLR" backwards) — "Retro Linux System Distribution"

TheFakeMontyOnTheRun commented 10 years ago

LeanLinux? Leanux (ok...that's silly =-P ) Slim Linux But I got to admit, the RLSD idea looks good.

dimkr commented 10 years ago

Indeed, RLSD sounds really good. It's a pun on "BSD" that has the rudeness of "DSL". I'll give it several days, then go for RLSD unless someone offers a better name.

dbohdan commented 10 years ago

To complete the BSD pun s/System/Software/ in "RLSD".

Note: you may want to change the GitHub repo description from "A lightweight, retro distro" to "A lightweight, retro Linux distro" for the sake of clarity.
