Interesting naming decision it's actually a swear word in russian and given that top contributors are obviously familiar with the lang. that is not a coincidence.
Indeed, I was going to point out that it may be an innocent mistake, like a decade old "Fedora for Raspberry PI" blunder. But now I've had a close look at the list of contributors, I cannot stop thinking it is an exquisite trolling!
— You mean, we should make a replacement for every project management tool at once?
— <Why> not?
— OK, I've named the repo just that.
Which blunder are you referring to?
Probably Pidora, which is also not an inviting name in Russian (connotation with "fag").
Perhaps it's to discourage bureaucratic Russian companies from using it :)
IIRC Anton Nosik, a pioneer of Russian web, explicitly said that he chose Livejournal user name "dolboeb" (~"dumbfuck") because he didn't want traditional media to cite him.
Interesting username decision — “qaq” (քաք) is actually the vulgar word for “shit” in Armenian.
I'm sure GP is aware of this. This root has "shitty" connotations in many languages, Russian included.
that def was not the intention :) как is how in russian
