When I read "OpenIndiana" I read it as the name of a bit of software,
and I personally don't feel it has any association with the American

I know anti-american sentiment is quite strong these days thanks to
their unilateral approach to foreign affairs, but probably not so
great that it puts people off using our distribution :-)
