Another suggestion: Friends of gNewSense. It's
- Friendly
- Inclusive: it implies "the more, the merrier"; gNewSense wants to be 
your friend, do you want to be a friend of gNewSense?
- Not exclusive: a friend of gNewSense can also be a friend of another 
free distro.
- Catchy in the way that it kind of rhymes
- Web 2.0: it seems that everybody wants to be everybody's friend online 
these days, so why not be a friend of gNewSense.

Like some other suggestions, this one applies more to all of the 
gNewSense user community (and possibly those who sympathize with our 
cause but aren't using it yet). I don't think that's a problem, because 
when the name catches on (by the efforts of the team) everybody who uses 
it will be part of the marketing team in a way.

I've made a summary of the comments so far [1]. I hope it will help us 
come closer to a decision. Please review it, edit if I have forgotten 
something and voice further comments and opinions on this list.
