Hi all, sorry for being late for the vote, I'd vote for "nion" and "notion". With an existing "Notion" software, there's a small chance in having problems and a big chance not being googlable, and THAT is a bigger problem IMNSHO, just as panman wrote. We can probably solve it by using the name "NotionWM" instead of just "Notion". >> I'm not particularly good with coming up with names. ThinWM? >> TinyParticle? TilingMadeSimple? Quirk? (Told you I was terrible.) If we're going to find new names, I'm no better, but the Wikipedia "ion" page is great for finding metaphors: * Aurora - sounds like a new, beautiful and exciting stuff Competing on Google is the concept plane. * NucleusWM - sounds nice and would carry the idea of a small WM, but there are many other uses for this word, even in software. * Faraday - he discovered and named the ions. There are a lot of fun metaphors we can find ^^ * Polyatomic - well, that's geeky :) Just my 2 cents, --=20 Sylvain Ab=C3=A9lard "J=E2=80=99ai d=C3=A9cid=C3=A9 d=E2=80=99=C3=AAtre heureux, c=E2=80=99est m= eilleur pour la sant=C3=A9." -Voltaire
