at some point in history boolberry would also be renamed to Arplex

Boolberry is not the best name, i see.
But i've decided to stay with that.
i'm so sick of this naming talks - it's not possible to please everybody.
I like this name and i'll make a value for this name with my work and my ideas.
Thanks to all people who suggested names, i'm very sorry that i didn't like it, please try to understand me.
The prize will be devided between all who suggested in this thread, with thanks and respect. Sorry again that i didn't take name here.
Now naming issue is closed.
I'm gladly go back to work, hope we will appear on exchanges soon.
PS: those who was complained that solo mining is impossible - you can try your luck now since hashrate is pretty low now. this is your second chance.
PPS: those who don't like the name - that's ok, i can understand you and respect your choice if you go to Monero(or whatever). Mine in peace!
Now the question is: Why insist on changing the name?
I think there are other important things that need to worry.
I remember this well and also remember that in his pm correspondence with me he seemed stressed and unhappy about the whole debate. CZ is a very talented dev and coder, but I don't think he is so happy dealing with strongly expressed opposing views - it does his head in.
I was thinking about this earlier and wondered if he may have been hectored or worn down by the pro-rebrand cabal, who I will now call the PRC
(see what I did there?), maybe he just agreed to hand over responsibility to get some peace?
There is certainly more important stuff for him to work on, this potential exploit being top of the list.
if so you can run against windjc and then if you win, you can decide to keep the Boolberry name
