We need to make a decision if we are going with Libre-SOC, LibreSOC, or something else. In order to have a central location to keep track of everyone's opinions, I figured we can have a check list of people in the top comment here. If you can't edit the top comment, post a comment asking someone (Luke and me can, idk about everyone else) to edit it for you. (lkcl update: clicked the "editable bug" checkbox programmerjake: doesn't work, see comment #3) Remember that we operate on unanimous decision making, so, having a majority doesn't automatically mean that option wins.

Hi Jacob, thanks for setting up this central location for this small but very important decision. I can't edit the top comment, so can you please mark me down under Libre-SOC. Thanks a lot!

removing group since that is for making the bug not publically visible, not for allowing people to edit it,

If I had to pick one, I'd say Libre-SOC (because that's the domain name we can get) but I don't particularly care either way.

I prefer Libre-SOC
(In reply to Tobias Platen from comment #7) > I prefer Libre-SOC added, thanks tobias.
we haven't really heard from michael (pham) in several months, have we.
(In reply to Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton from comment #9) > we haven't really heard from michael (pham) in several months, have we. actually, the last email was 2020 Jan 25, not very long ago. Michael commented on choosing which domain name Libre-SOC should use: http://lists.libre-riscv.org/pipermail/libre-riscv-dev/2020-January/003566.html I think we should wait a little longer, maybe till Feb 26? (edit: Michael replied, see comment #1)
We can declare Libre-SOC as the new, official, way to spell our project's name! (Assuming I haven't missed something and assuming that the several weeks we've been talking about the name spelling is long enough that all interested parties have spoken up.)
Just finished updating the website to use the new spelling consistently.
