I haven't looked into the proposal to much yet. I may do that shortly. but as a generic answer for me I think A rebranding is a good idea but it needs to be done properly. This means no shortcuts and an actual community driven effort. I wouldn't want to see it be rushed either. I would rather them take time and even consider launching meetup events for around the time or the re-branding (if such rebranding happens)

Have a good weekend.
