I would have to agree with both of you. However, as it's only an informal
poll and won't be directly affecting project names, I don't see much of an
issue.

I would also think the survey is completely flawed if 12 people are
considered a majority. Yes, you are right, Gary, this survey was a personal
initiative from Erik. If we want to get more opinions, I would advocate for
a larger survey that would be less "personal" and that would be organized in
coordination with more people (for instance the Marketing Committee, whose
members are advisors for the board in terms of visual identity).
