I don't think it's blocked at all that many, not that I've seen, just  
that the wiki*.org projects are high profile and we can work on  
getting that corrected.

Grub was started as this vision of a shared crawler, and it's finally  
getting there, I personally want to see the name stand for that and  
for something good that benefits everyone.  Just because there was  
one version many years ago that was buggy, that isn't enough for me  
to want to abandon the original tie between the name and the vision :)

Besides, it's good motivation to make this work *SO* well that  
everyone is /begging/ to be in it :)
