        @poVoq But the project has Canonical's permission to use the name Ubuntu Touch.
        If and when a switch is made to Debian, and this is the first I've heard of it, then it will be soon enough to make a name change. At the noment there really is no pressing need.

        EDIT: changed 'sanction' to 'permission' for clarity

            @UniSuperBox Fair enough.

            How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

              @arubislander I think a fresh 1 word name not linked to anything else would boost the project.

                      I know but I meant I like the name. Something like that would be ideal for UT IMO. πŸ™‚

                        @Opolork Can remember a good cleaning product that was commonly used in the UK called JIF it seemed to disappear all of a sudden from the shelves. Years later I discovered they had re-named it but I can't think what the name is. Oh well I just bought another cleaning product; after all what's in a name - it's usually just for recognition purposes.
