Best of what I've come up with so far is all.  I don't really like the
sound of Amigix either, but the others are worse.  I really would've
liked to have used Amix, but C-A took that.

Amusing, but I don't really think it works any better...

Not a bad thought, here...  Except I might be asking for trouble by
using "Unix" as even part of the name...  Maybe "AmixExec"?  Hmm...

[after all, this WILL be Unix implemented on top of Exec...]

Sorry, no.  AmigaDOS has no place here.  Eventually, I hope to write a
filesystem for it as well.  AmigaDOS will be initially used to access
the disk, though that will be behind the scenes.  AmigaDOS is NOT an
essential piece here, and I hope to allow its use to be ompletely
optional.  Exec, on the other hand, IS an intergral piece of this
system, hence "AmixExec" *might* be ok...  But then, I don't know what
Commodore-Amiga would think of my using that...   Would that be asking
for trouble also?

>Or put 'em all together and you get ADosExenix (Adosexenix? Adosexnix?)

Nah...

Exenix is a little too like Xenix, and I never liked the sound of
"Xenix" anyhow...
