Thanks for the feedback! It looks like the name was not optimally chosen based on the feedback in this thread, so I may need to address that. If the site or FB/twitter-feeds gains more regular users than myself I'll definitely look into it.



I like "foss". It's almost universally understood to refer to free software and open source. These two are really the same thing, but just like "cease and desist" or "terms and conditions", a little redundancy doesn't hurt to get the point across.


Yes! FOSSwatch seems to ring really nicely to me as well.


OK thanks for the suggestion - I've gone ahead and registered FOSSwatch.com. Will likely switch, but maybe not tonight.


Some folks like also "FLOSS" term


True, but it's unfortunately a lot less widely recognized.
