I would expect an ORGanization of libre artists, but I understand the point about a more official/corporative/governamental name, I agree.<div><br></div><div>But I think is better to keep it short and avoid names like: "FreeAndOpenSoftwareToCreateGraphicsWithLibreToolsAndEnviromentsOrganization" that nobody remember after 5 secons.</div>

Why not something short and concise like "Libre Artists"<br>
<br></div>
In addition <a href="http://libreartists.org" target="_blank">libreartists.org</a> <<a href="http://libreartists.org" target="_blank">http://libreartists.org</a>> (and .net .com<br>
.info) are available<br>

Something to keep in mind, which was discussed at the meeting the other day is that there is a lot to the name. The idea was to have a name with suggests some official capacity, some resource for not only the various projects, but also users, individual users of course, but also collective commercial users like some corporation or maybe even governmental organization to look to for help in adopting FOSS in whatever graphics workflow(s) they may engage in. Finally, one must have a name which has some intuitive meaning for potential donation sources.<br>
<br>
Not necessarily an argument against libreartists, but what would someone expect from an organization with a website named <a href="http://libreartists.org" target="_blank">libreartists.org</a>?<br>
