I think it is a waste of energy to rename CDD.
And it would a waste of my energy to attempt to stop the renaming.

For those with losts of energy, don't kill
    Debian Med Project List <[email protected]>,
    [email protected], [email protected],
    Debian Junior <[email protected]>
to make the new
    Custom Debian Distributions <[email protected]> 
a great "succes".

Use your energy to write better software, to marketeer the current name.
