    I really liked MOSCOW, it sounds cool for a TCP.A shame that isnt listed in the options.

    From the options I like Sputnik, which sounds really cool too. MOSnet and so, sounds a bit vanilla for me.

    Yes, MosNet is a bit vanilla indeed, but is that bad? Not everything
    must have those übercool names. Sometimes it is just useful to have a
    simple descriptive name.

    The name is like a pair of Levis 501 dark blue denim: Standard, but a
    pretty good one.

    Okay I voted bluetcp although out of the choices sputnik was probably the best. I really think that we should probably avoid the whole MOSsomething bit. If you look at a lot of software for Amiga it looks like ami this and ami that. Lets move away from that legacy and start something that actully (at least to me) make more sense. That was one of the most anoying things about Amiga and the software written for it.

    Just my two bits.

    Why not choose a truly original name that has meaning?

    How about: "Licklider" ?

    J.C.R. Licklider is thought of as one of the first pioneers of computer networking and published the the earliest papers on network computing, laying out things that from then (60's) led to the internet as we know it today. Check wikipedia for more info :)

    I liked MOScow. Why wasnt it added?I think several other liked it as well. Its a very fitting name for it dont you think? MOSnet is okay, but its plain.
