I'm not saying the name shouldn't be changed but why are we voting to change it to OpenStream? Where did this name come from and where did every other option go? I'd like to vote for staying with SpreadCoin since as far as I know the other name has no purpose. I'm all for changing if there's a point to it.

I would like to explore other options as well. I'm not against Openstream at all and in fact do like it (although someone did say it may already be Trademarked - that may or may not pose issues in the future - probably not though). I just want to make sure this is a thorough discussion.

We will have to live with this for the rest of the project and we don't want to change more than once.

I wonder too what sort of plans there are to make this a reality - like designing new graphics & such.

Places Openstream is already taken:
http://www.openstream.com/
http://openstream.info/

Plus a trademark on it in US

Love the name idea, but perhaps another should be discussed.

Edit: We could consider SpreadStream
Combines the old with the new. Includes the idea to stream any data over servicenodes. As well as Spread relates to decentralization.
