[Openstack] New code name for networks

I vote for calling it "spacetime" since spacetime binds us all together in the same way networks bind computers together. Doubt it's copyrightable if that's needed, unless Einstein holds the copyright :P

Cool.
I think I did a search here: http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=searchss&state=4804:3j8874.1.1  for Netpune.

Are we only concern with registered trademark? I am sure a lot of names we come up with are either full or partial of some company's name. What's the bottom line?
Who's going to come up the list of names? Where do we put our suggestion? For the next OS release we have a Wiki page setup. Do we have a Wiki page setup yet?

Best,
John

This stuff is trickier than you might realize. Hence why car names are now all made-ity-up words.

    Keeps the sciency theme going, same first two letters, and
    represents something
    fundamental to other sciency stuff (much like networking is
    fundamental to
    OpenStack).
