Are you going to keep DAMN SMALL, or switch to DEMI SIZE?  Who came up with that?  Sounds kinda French to me.  Speaking of the French, where has Flonix gone?  Can't find it anywhere...

I know at least one person in particular that will not use DSL because of the "damn" in the name.

I have no desire to argue about it with him. So be it.

However, DSL has gained quite a bit of popularity being known as Damn Small Linux or DSL, so changing it now may not be a good idea.

damn is an adverb meaning extremely.. evidently extremists prefer association with damnation and little will be done to sway the twisted mindset. it is just a word. I fail to comprehend the idea.
