Hi,

I'm the lead developer of the TortoiseSVN project. I've discovered your site because we had a user complain today on our mailing list that TortoiseSVN on Linux didn't work as expected. Since there is no TortoiseSVN on Linux, I googled around and found your site.

I think the name you chose for your project is too close to TortoiseSVN and will (as mentioned: it already has) confuse many users. I'd like you therefore to reconsider the name ToytoiseSVN and maybe choose something that isn't that similar to our project name TortoiseSVN.

Also remember that "TortoiseXXX" is usually known as a *Windows shell* extension (e.g., TortoiseSVN, TortoiseCVS, TortoiseHG, ...).

Stefan
