[CREATE] [LGF] A name !

[Marcos Diaz]

I would expect an ORGanization of libre artists, but I understand the point
about a more official/corporative/governamental name, I agree.

But I think is better to keep it short and avoid names like:
"FreeAndOpenSoftwareToCreateGraphicsWithLibreToolsAndEnviromentsOrganization"
that nobody remember after 5 secons.
