Why not get rid of all the bazaar stuff altogether? They could just |

fork linux. Minus the name, of course. I could suggest a name, but |
22 |
won't. But maybe it is more appealing to grab something that is |
23 |
already there? Not to mention that it is way more friendly to the |
24 |
interests of a certain corporation. |
