I don't want to join the name discussion again, but I really support the
idea of keeping the name "compiz community" (or "coco" as short form and
prefix for the packages) - if you think of it, the old name of the
compiz-forums (before beryl) was not compiz-quinnstorm.org ... it was
compiz.org. Nobody had a problem with it back then, so why bother today?

To be honest - I am totally against making a poll about the name ...
most users don't care about the name anyway and it is likely that we end
up with a name like "coryl" or "blitz" or "YayIwantMoreBling-thing" -
because there are just too many people voting who don't really have a
sense for a cool project identity ...

I also like the compizforums.org proposal because it would clearly
separate community-driven stuff from the official site. Though taking
Ubuntu as an example once again shows that some people need to come back
to planet earth - we are not creating our own Linux-distribution, do
we? :) ...
