[Mageia-discuss] New name for cooker

[Catalin Florin RUSSEN]

Why we don't just edit a page on the wiki with all this proposed names, and one 
the list is "complete" to propose a pool and vote for the one we like most?

Cheers,
Florin

I just sort all suggestions as promise I give you a summary.

Please, limit your post on this list, this thread has cause enought
noise already.

If you have a good reason to eliminate a word, or want more explanation,
mail me directly or sent me a message on IRC (Nanar, Freenode), I'll
post a sumarry here if need.

I did learn a lot of words !

I made some choice for you (sorry):
- read your mail, then take  decision according comment
- check quickly on google for major conflicts (such as widelly know
  trademark, well know software, ...).

My favorites are word related to room or recipient (to push a change
in...). I did also notice a lot mail in favor of 'cauldron'.

The list, # mean the word is definitely discard (see the comment to find why).

# Abracadabra - Way too long
Agora - too common, and http://www.agora.gouv.fr/

Mystique - is it correct in english ?
# Olympus - Camera trademark
oven
Pan
# Phoenix - too complicated, will cause error "œ"
# pioneer - trademark
Potion room - one uniq word would better
# Pot - "pott" refer to drugs
Presto
Prometheus - "Prometheus is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe", I 
suggest to avoid... :)
quicksilver
rookery
# root - will cause mistake with the user
stove
Synergy - a free software
# Ta Da! - one word would make our life easier
# Tea party - politics issue
testing - like debian, no personnality
