Thanks for this timely reminder of how much simpler and better things are
when you *do* take the trouble to agree the name before the vote!   At one
stage the 'swl' group had all the possibilities of a big name controversy,
but Richard & Co took note of the discussion and suggestions and then put
to the vote the above sensible name, which has now deservedly got a very
positive result.
