Based on the small overall amount of votes here, a similarly small amount of votes on Matrix, the large amount of people who voted on Discord and the large margin by which the name VoxeLibre won the voting on Discord, as well as the heated discussion that followed the survey on private dev chats...
The new name of this project will be
# VoxeLibre
Personal opinion. VoxeLibre should be the name of MineTest, because MineTest seems like it was a temporary name for experimental ‘learn a programming language’ project. And MineClone is exaclly what this is so maybe not best for advertisement but it fits.
VoxeLibre has intended to not be Minecraft clone for a long time now. There has been burgers in the base game for 17 months now. Unfortunately, every time someone tries to do something different, they get a hostile reception. The name is a liability, and not representative of what the project plans to be. The name change is about where the game plans to be, not where it was in the past. MineClone2 is a dreadful name. It’s like calling it rubbish MC rip-off 2.

Im fine with the name change here, but also agree that MineTest is a bit of a lame name for what is pretty much a game engine.
