Hi!
I really do not understand why so many people think that the name should
include the word "open" or should somehow include parts of the protocol
(SIP) or its usage (server, proxy ...).
If I take a look at very successful open source projects they do not
follow this, e.g. Apache, Eclipse, Pidgin, Wireshark, Asterisk, Tomcat,
Boost ...
Good point.
OTOH, I think that the compulsion to name the project in a way that is
more directly reflective of its technical dimension arises from the fact
that the purpose is rather esoteric and specialised, and caters to a
more conservative technical audience.
