Hi,

sorry for intruding the discussion, but I want to make some remarks on "Zynot" 
(the word I mean)...

Not knowing what you have already discussed, "zyn..." spoken in German 
strongly reminds of "Zynismus" (which is, cynicism). Other languages might 
have the same effect.

After all, it's not so wonderful to have a dog-like or shameless (kynikos 
[greek]) operating system. Sorry, but "Zynot" is too far in the gray lands of 
semantic twilight (in which the same thing might be true and right and 
totally wrong at the same time), for my taste.

There are more things with this short word "Zynot" that make me unhappy. I'd 
propose a small contest on for new name. I think it might promote popularity 
of the project and give us a name that is either more neutral or more 
memorable. ;)

Kind regards
k.j.
