[Baypiggies] Voting for a new name

[Chad Harrington]

As the (only?) VP of Marketing in the group, I have to say I hate the name 
BayPIGgies.  I support voting for a new name.  I also support creating a 
formalized structure for the group.

First law of branding -- never change your name.

BAYPIGGIES may not suit everyone's taste, but it has name recognition and
is not confusing to most folks after they are introduced to it.

There are lots more pressing issues!
