--------------------------
chordata (3) Jun, David, Pau
chordia (3) Jun, Pau, David
CLAM chords (2) Hernan, Jun
CChords (2) Hernan, Jun
acords (1) Pau

handychords (1) Hernan
chordytown (1) Hernan
chordjuice (1) Hernan
chordmatic (1) Hernan

I personally dislike 'CLAM Chords' being too obvious and zero branding, and 
even worse CChords as we have no tradition of using a leading C and in order 
to have any sense we should push us to do the same with the rest of the 
applications. No strong feelings against the top of the list and i still like 
some of the bottom. Feel free to add and drop your point count to any option 
until tomorrow morning when i will rename the app, generate packages and 
publitize.

By the way, preliminar ubuntu, windows and debian packages should be on the 
svnsnapshot downloads right now. Could you try them in a CLAM agnostic machine 
(not having CLAM installed)?
