I have changed it to "Om 2008.8" at the Wiki Editing guidelines page .
I also added notes to "Om2007.2" and "Openmoko" that these names are
not clear at the moment.
Can you tell me what the correct name for the 2007.2 software is?
Is "Om" the only correct name for the software? This would mean that
many pages are incorrect at the moment as they use "Openmoko" as a
name for the software. For example "Openmoko under QEMU", "Why
Openmoko", or "Openmoko". Do we have to change them?
