Varnish Cache project to change its name to Vinyl Cache with the next release, 8.0.0, in March, per @span bsdphk:

We have tried to negotiate with Varnish Software for many months about this issue, but their IP-Lawyers still insist that Varnish Software owns the Varnish Cache name, and at most we have being offered a strictly limited, subject to their veto, permission for the FOSS project to use the “Varnish Cache” name.

We cannot live with that: We are independent FOSS project with our own name.

So we will change the name of the project.

The new association and the new project will be named “The Vinyl Cache Project”, and this release 8.0.0, will be the last under the “Varnish Cache” name. The next release, in March will be under the new name, and will include compatibility scripts, to make the transition as smooth as possible for everybody.
