I want to add that I have the above links at hand because I am an active user
of the sites. I use both gtk-apps.org and kde-apps.org when looking for
programs, and my desktop is usually an eclectic mix of free software from
here and there. I've never thought that two letters in a program name were a
so much transcendental matter, and I offer a name change if that helps to
stop the persecution. If the proposed name "Lapidation" is not acceptable,
I'm open to other proposals.

Pedro

PD. Thank you very much to all the people who is offering their support and
solidarity, publicly as Nedko or privately.
