This is great that they’re forking but do that have to continue the OSS tradition of terrible app names?

    The name was voted by the community. There were a lot of very good names that unfortunately were already being used by other projects. I'm not a fan of the final choice either.

    And, It’s not even unique.

    On the iOS App Store, for example, there is:

    • MyCOMAP
    • COMAP
    • ComAp Helpcentre
    • MYCOMAP BALANCING
    • and two apps from a company named COMAP S.A.
