After a month and a half of thinking, searching, and pondering, I have decided on a new name for the project:

Xataface

(pronounced Zataface)

The reasons for this name are:

  1. It only requires one letter to be changed.

  2. The ‘X’ sort of signifies a crossing out of the ‘D’

  3. The .org, .net, and .com domain names were all available.

  4. Nobody else seems to be using this phrase for any other product.

I’ll be updating the documentation and logos over the next few weeks to reflect the change.

I like it! Simple but effective change, and it gets the point across.
