[hobbit] "Hobbit" name legal stuff; slight name changewill happen

[Mike Rowell]

You may find Quest or Endamol getting interested if you are using the
term Big Brother...

Quest because they now own the Big Brother software 

And Endamol because they own the rights to the Big Brother TV show
worldwide.

Hobbit, iirc, was originally a backronym for Highly Optimized Big
Brother <mumble>.

So, we can just reverse the order: Tibboh "<mumble> Big Brother
Optimized Highly"

The name looks obscure enough to get passed most PHBs, and we'd all
know...
