A bit weird when people insist in taking into account the disruption in naming (maemo->meego, missing hildon names) that Nokia introduced with harmattan, while in same sentence they insist in meego actually being maemo6.

My 2 cents: While I'm absolutely happy with the name Hildon-foundation, I also think the name Aeolos-foundation in whatever spelling has a real good point in the rationale behind it. But in the end it all will be just the name of the foundation and the URL where you can read the bylaws and foundation's oragnization related stuff.
For everything else we will most likely keep domain names, hell for some domains (e.g. repositories) we even mustn't change domain names, so no reason to get yourself a headache about all that. The headache will start when Nokia refuses to edit the maemo DNS entry to point to community infra servers, and then I promise name of the foundation will be our least problem ;-)
