Following up on the proposal to rename the LGBTQI group, the winner is:

Drupal Rainbow!

Rainbow Drupal wins, with 20% of the vote

Despite legitimate concerns about the clichéness of this name, it looks like on the whole the consensus is that it's the best name for us to pick.

I'm actually OK with this. It's immediately recognizable to the world at large, is rife with potential puns we could play off of, and we could always use TORQUE on t-shirts or whatnot for "insiders". :)

Thanks, everyone! I'll get started renaming some stuff.

Nice! I'll whip up a graphic of a rainbow of little Druplicons when I get some time.

Taste the rainbow. That is

Shall we celebrate our new moniker? Hit me up if anyone is interested in planning something...you can also find me tomorrow
at Drupal Camp wearing my zombie shirt.

Coincidence: Passing through NYC tomorrow!

Gah! I'm sorry to see the camp is sold out! I've been in the Boston area this past week and am passing through NYC tomorrow. I'll spend the early afternoon in my home town of Mount Kisco (in Northern Westchester), then was planning to have dinner with a friend in Bloomfield, NJ... but maybe I could stop by in between. Could someone contact me through the site if an event's in the making? Thanks!

I was thinking of planning a celebration for our new name for the end of the month or next.

I remember!

I can't believe more people didn't vote for Trans-G Thunderbot Ladyfingers Unicorns. :)

But "Drupal Rainbow" is good too!
