I dunno, "team" is pretty generic. No one playing football (on either
side of the pond) seems to have a problem with it. Hmm, "club"? Too
Mickey Mouse. "League"? "Fedora Justice League to the rescue!"
"Cadre"? "Corps"? "Assemblage"? "Consortium"?
/me suggests "Team" and a bottle of Pepto Bismol at the ready for
Seth. :-)
P.S. I think "Fedora Project" is fine as is for the umbrella.
