On to the first order of business. As the subject says, what should security team be called. Hopefully we can get a few suggestions and then reach a consensus. Arch Linux Security Task Force just sounds like too much of a mouthful to me.

I was brooding over this and I thought some sort of acronym that's an actual word would sound better, so I came up with this:

'Arch Response Team for Security' or ARTS. It's a bit cheesy and cheats a bit to get the acronym but is instantly memorable. I'm aware arts was also a KDE technology but it has long since been deprecated.

Ideas?

Arch Response Security Engineers?

Sensible suggestions please!

I vote for TACO !

or: Tape Arch's Cracks Over Toughened Arch Community Operation Tough Arch Crack Ops Lots of TACO options :-) But yes, something simple and obvious is probably better. How about: Standing Arch Linux Security Alliance (SALSA) :-D

Arch Security Mailing List ASML ?

That's more for the mailing list I reckon. I'll leave it half a day or so, so that users from other time zones can get their opinions heard. The consensus, trolling aside, seems to be on Arch Security Team (AST). It's simple and to the point so seems to be in keeping with Arch's philosophy and therefore fitting. Ananda

I think the name should be simple (I've already commented on AST). But I wanted to point out, the name isn't everything. Its what the team does or proposes to do that should be thought about. Spending too much time on a name, while not actually doing anything is fail. -Miah On Thu, Jun 17, 2010 at 3:18 PM, J. McBlane wrote:
