Much better name and not just because of the naming collision. Tesseract was really smart but you had to have a dictionary and know the company is Square to get it. Crossfire has a huge potential audience of not just ubernerds.

You apparently misread the name. That can't be a good sign. :)

Oops, can I blame it on autocorrect ;)
Gamer alert!
I agree, and its nice to see open source projects which had naming collisions but blossomed with a new name: it's hard to imagine Firefox being 'Phoenix' or 'Firebird', both seem generic now that we know the strong identity of Firefox.
