You keep repeating the same thing over and over again and I am getting
really tired of explaining this to you. Just drop it and move on. If you
want to insist on a new name, go ahead and be my guest. If you find
consensus, let me know. I am building on a desktop kickstart based live
cd and that's all I have time for. If others want to build a KDE based
live cd, sure, feel free to participate. I did inform Rex Dieter and
others in the KDE SIG this.

You already brought this up before and I repeat, there is nothing
outside of Fedora and RPM Fusion packages in Omega.

Nothing close to it. I wanted to host Omega in RPM Fusion mirrors. I
asked on list a few times and no decision was ever made. The option was
to drop all my work on the floor or host it elsewhere. I am hosting it
elsewhere till people here decide on something since I did not want my
work to be wasted. I will ask again, are you or the steering committee
or whoever it is that is making the decision now willing to host Omega?
