You were misunderstanding me: I did not advocate Litrix -- I
rather
warned against using it. The one who proposed it was
advocating
Lintrix, saying it described what $new_FreeNX_name does,
also
implying it would have an appeal through the similar sound
of that
familiar brand. I argued that Lintrix didn't sound very
similar, but
Litrix does. However, *IF* you used Litrix, its fate would
become
more similar to fate of the Lindows name....

It's ok, I've re-read the post (1. post on 21. July), and I
interpret 
your post as beeing positive to the name 'HYDE', as I am.
