Is it just me, or has the name of the project become somewhat obsolete? I mean, it's not used only for scumm-games anymore. It has sported support for other scumm-like engines for a while, so I can deal with sticking with the original name in the past.
However, with the included AGI-support I think we should consider a name change. I mean, ScummVM has got more to do with Humongous games and other non-Lucasarts engines nowadays than the actual Maniac Mansion scripting language. So what do you think? Should we start taking names (and kicking ass[tm]) and begin a vote? I say we do!
