    Please call the GNU ELPA as such, or GELPA, or something besides just
    "ELPA."  I remember we had this discussion before and I've tried to be
    consistent, using "GNU ELPA" when I mean "GNU ELPA."

The problem with "GNU ELPA" as a name is that people will tend to
think that "ELPA" is an abbreviation of it.  To avoid confusion, we
need a name that is not similar to "ELPA".

How about Remote Emacs Library?
