Now that the DDX formerly know as Xfree86-DDX is called Xizzle, perhaps
its time to give better names for the other components?

Warning: below is a great way to waste time!

Heres some names for the umbrella project formerly known as xserver:
(misspellings intentional)

Made up names
Xintilla "zintilla"	= X + Scintilla
Phox "Fox"		= Photon + X
lanscape		= LAN + Dreasmscape
reflex			= reflection + X
keroscene		= burn + scene
Cinetax "syntax"	= Cinematic + X
Radient
Radialis

English names
Aurora
Modulus			= Modular

Foreigh names
kirei			= Japanese for "beautiful" and "clean"

Have fun, and keep it clean!!

Cheers,
Ryan
