One concern I have is how the project would be "branded." I'm not sure exactly what you have in mind, but a generic name that encompass both home and small office users might be too broad. It's a subtle issue that may not be related to the technology, I know.
I agree with you, but we could be able to "solve" the issue with more variants.
Do you have a mailing list? I think I remember reading that SIGs should have their own mailing lists. I can also talk here if I don't wear out my welcome on this channel.
I think that SIGs do not have mailing lists at the moment (you're right, they're supposed to have them). I hope to setup the wiki page for the SLS SIG later today. Meanwhile, I'm emailing you the SIG proposal.
