We decided to avoid using “free” or “libre” in the name because we don’t think it does the project justice.

Extremely correct call.

Other FOSS devs, please pay attention to this. I don't want to use apps called "Free," I want to use apps that have interesting names. Looking at you LibreOffice/OpenOffice. Whether something is gratis or FOSS is largely irrelevant, project names should stand on their own.
