The 3rd choice could potentially work. It doesn't sound unique, but it does carry the message of openness and similarity to OpenStreetMap.

We're excited to share that the community has spoken, and the name chosen for the community navigation app is... CoMaps! 🎉

The name is very popular, it received twice as many votes (92 votes) as the second choice option (44 votes), and third choice (37 votes).

Thank you to everyone who participated, your enthusiasm and community collaboration are incredible!

Recap

· Goal: The aim for a name was easy pronunciation that resonated with the project's essence, and was not already trademarked.

· Voting: Community members voted by adding 👍 to their favorite names and suggesting names (https://codeberg.org/comaps/Governance/issues/34).

CoMaps stood out for its simplicity and catchiness, as well as for its perfect alignment with the mission to create a community-driven navigation app that empowers people to explore and navigate the world.

What's Next?

The community will select the color scheme of the project. If you are interested in collaborating to develop the color scheme, check it out! https://codeberg.org/comaps/Governance/issues/56

Great question, we do have plans to create it! Since we have not yet incorporated as a non-profit, there are extra steps to set this up, and we're working on it right now. Thank you for your support, we appreciate you very much!

Why does it feel like navigation apps are more interested in your data than in helping you find your way? That's why we are working to create CoMaps – a community-driven, open-source navigation app designed for you to take the lead.

· Open & Transparent: All decisions are made in public, with full transparency.

· Privacy-respecting: The app doesn’t track you or collect your data.

· Community Empowerment: You have a voice in how the app evolves.

· Free & Not-for-Profit: Our focus is on creating value for the community, not generating profit.

Join us in building a navigation app that truly serves the public good!
