Re: recycling "Fedora Insight" name?

Insight seems like a good word for such a blog, but it also sounds a bit off. It's abstract, and can be confused with an application.
It may be better to choose something more straightforward.

I don't think it's as much a negative association per se as a name
with history attached that would confuse people.  It was a project
that fizzled, so to reuse the name would be confusing about how this
new site came about.  -1 Insight for me too.
