Announcing Lotus for Ruby v0.4.0 (lotusrb.org)

This is a great initiative, I'm positive about having competition for Rails, but this just still too far. They're just announcing features that have been part of Rails for more than 5 years now.
I know there are literally no names left in the world and collisions are inevitable no matter what you do, but I'm really confused by naming a piece of software "Lotus" at this point. I was half expecting some kind of Lotus Notes for Ruby or something.
Wow I didn't know this existed. Could anyone give any impressions?
