I'm slightly against this because respin is its own word that has been used around Linux for a long time to mean a re-imagining or at least a re-imaging of a distribution.

I can see why they've called it this, but I know I've used it in the generic sense before. Forcing a merge into a branded tag feels... Wrong.

^{Not with me? What if somebody forked Bash and called it Command Line? We wouldn't entertain a merge there. I know it's less extreme here but this isn't a hugely used tag... Do we need to do anything?}

I'd be slightly against this because respin isn't just the name for a bit of software, is its own word that has been used around Linux for a long time to mean a re-imagining or at least a re-imaging of a distribution.

And in that sense, it's super-east to see see why they've called it this... But I know I've used it in the generic sense before. Merging a generic into a branded tag feels... Wrong.
