Point is, what if it was renamed to Walter? What people tend to forget is
that the OpenBeOS project belongs to its developers and, in the end, we
get to decide anything about it (including the name). We decided to let
the community help and, in the end, all we got was moaning, (bad)
criticism and bitching. We learned our lesson though. From now on if my
vote counts on making stuff like that public or not, it will be for not
making it public. I won't make the same mistake twice in a row.
