The simple way to avoid that issue would be for the distribution
documentation (website, and what comes with it), to refer to itself
using its full name and preferred abbrevation, close to the start.  That
helps prevent /usrs ;-) from developing their own nicknames for it.

Having people refer to it as F7 is bad enough, having different people
call it FC7 and F7 is worse, again.

Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.  Today, it's FC7.
