Hi

TorBOX has been renamed to aos as a quick fix to avoid confusion and to
solve trademark issues. [1] Aos stands for for Anonymous Operating System.

"aos" has way too many meanings and Google results already. [2]
Therefore I want to rename aos just one more time.

The current website is still hosted on tpo [3]. A VPS has been purchased
and the website will soon be migrated to the new webserver. Also a
domain will soon be purchased.

I'd be nice if you could make suggestions for a good project name.
Things like "anonym.os", "anonymous.os", "anon.os" are already taken.

The project name should project the nature of the project (anonymous
operating system). It shouldn't lead to any confusion or trademark
issues. There shouldn't be any relevant results when searching for
"projectname" in quotes on Google. The project name should also be
usable as a nice domain name.

Cheers,
adrelanos
