Hi!

Maybe let me clarify: I don't have anything against any of those particular words. My original intention was that I thought them to be little descriptive regarding their function. You seem to have "--bare" and "--naked". Hard to guess what they really do. The suggestion to select better words was not primarily because of underaged using Linux or any SPAM issues. That part was just a joke. Sorry.

Regards, Ulrich
