Well, that's a little like saying 'Would you rather go to McDonalds or
that new burger joint nobody knows that might be a lot better but also
might be a lot worse?'
Perhaps if a new name is to be decided the benevolent dictator should
simply decide a new name is to be given and it is up to us to decide which.

OK, it seems like the consensus is clear to me. So
far, most people want to
use/keep LADSPA2. I ran it through a condorcet program, just to make sure,
but it't not in doubt. FWIW, by my count the pure "acceptable" numbers
came out as:
17 ladspa2
7 xap
6 peep
5 apa
4 sax
4 plux
3 rap
2 peeper
2 eep
1 wasap
1 sap
1 pea
1 openplux
1 lapa
1 fap
1 clap
1 chap
And the condorcet pattern was:
9 ladspa2
1 ladspa2>apa>sax
1 ladspa2>plux
1
ladspa2>sap>xap>peep>peeper>sax>fap>eep>clap>chap>apa>rap>pea>wasap>rap
1 ladspa2>lapa>plux>xap
1 openplux>plux>ladspa2
1 peep
1 peeper>peep>apa
1 plux>apa>ladspa2
1 sax>eep>xap
1 xap>apa>ladspa2
1 xap>peep
1 xap>rap>peep
1 xap>sax>peep>ladspa2
Only 23% of those voters would find LADSPA2 unacceptable, next best is XAP
which 68% would find unacceptable.
I wasn't especially rigourous, so I may have missed, or misinterpreted
someones vote. Someone could poll the LAU list if they felt inclined.
I think that we should give the people who's names appear on the original
.h file a veto, as were doing some radical changes to the design - though
hopefully still in the spirit of the original. It doesn't look like we'd
ever reach consensus on any other name though.
*sigh* I guess I should invest in an anti-RSI keyboard.
