The thread is discussing the possibility of name changes to some of

I don't think they are suggesting a name change for LibreOffice in
this case.
Oh, ok, good... sorry for how harsh it sounded too, I just didn't want
to see another long thread startup about the project name... ;)
Some one suggested changing Writer to Write, I like that. I would agree
that Impress is a very poor name for the presentation module, I would
suggest Present. It is far more to the point of what it actually is
for. I Particularly think Calc is bad because it is too easy to confuse
with Math. I think Spread would be better, or even Spreadsheet. Why be
obtuse. I like Draw and Base, they tell precisely what these modules
actually are, I think Math would be better called Formula, it is much
more accurately to the point. It has been mentioned that LO is NOT
OOo, and will be less and less so as time goes on, it would be a good
idea to change these names by the second actual release (non beta) at
the latest to help distinguish the two.
