I don't think "Linux" conveys the distinction between

both Workstation and CoreOS but not ELN. It would be better to come up
with another word to denote a collection of software distributions that
aren't "enterprise" distributions, and also not art, websites et cetera.
A word that captures the essence of how the things it covers differ from
all the other things.
Maybe something like "Fedora Family", because it's a number of closely
related distributions which are suitable for use at home?
Or something like "Fedora Flow", alluding to frequent releases and a
steady stream of updates?
I'm not _completely_ oppposed to the idea of an entirely new name, but
that's a big change, whereas this is just codifying something that has been
in use inconsistently for years.
