<p><a href="https://github.com/woodpeck" class="user-mention">@woodpeck</a> <em>since you mentioned alternative names</em>. Project name OpenStreetMap isn't good when it comes to describing what we do, I would prefer "Open Planet" or similar; without using "map" or "street": not because they discriminate anyone but because they are <em>meaningless</em>.</p>

<p>Subway networks in Moscow neither about "map" nor "street" so as thousands tags not about "streets". Same about OpenSeaMap and OpenRailMap projects. </p>

<p>Personally I don't care that this name is in use for 10 years, I would happily switch away from it.</p>
