Yes, i think it is a good idear.

This questions pop up sometimes earlier, i read this newsgroup
since 2003.

My feeling is that renaming the langauge would be better for publicity,
but Walter didn't do that.

I think the language should at least 3 character.

Maybe we should vote to keep the old or for an new language name.
