Replying to my own posts again. I've just gone and re-read the poll. 

I find the questions ambiguous. My preference is for:- 

- "RSS" to refer to 0.90 and 0.91
- 0.92 and above and 1.0 and above to change their names
- That these names may contain the letters R, S and S.
- But that "RSS - (Some word)" is not going to work.

This appears to be option 1, but I just know that option 1 will be taken
to be a vote of confidence in "RSS-something", which I consider to be
stupid and likely to just keep the pot of bugs boiling.
