As for the name, "Wikimania" doesn't seem offensive to me, but English is not my maternal language (French is). Perhaps it isn't descriptive enough for outsiders, but do we really want a lot of non-wikimedians at Wikimania? I presume this will be one of the questions that are to be discussed concerning Wikimania's future and goals.
Yes, if the conference was a group of bipolar types, they could call it "Flip Flop Mania" or "Up Down Mania"....
This is all about the name. Nothing to do with the conference aims and content and spirit (I have also been to two Wikimanias).
