It seems like this is the future. I guess I keep thinking that we're going to change the name. But we're not. Sorry, GitHub. Sorry, people who are confused. It's where we're at and it's what we are. If/when we change it will be down the road and it will be a big deal.

I propose we file with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (RIP, William Penn) to change our name to Gittip, LLC, then we can get an EV certificate based on that name, then we can move forward with ToS (#608) and then Payoneer (#481).

Objections?

This means moving the repo again. I'm not worried about that because we'll have an order of magnitude more people looking at the new repo and old skoolers will be old skool.

Sounds great to me.

I've only learned of Gittip a few days ago, and I actually like the name. I never found it confusing. Perhaps because GitHub has the AaaAaa shape while Gittip is Aaaaaa, which makes the distinction quite clear for me.

gittip/gittip sounds pretty decent, if it must be changed.

I've prepared the paperwork for this. Will mail tomorrow or Monday (does the mail go on Saturday?).

(That started as :P but then was too good to change.)

I didn't get this out on Saturday. Will mail tomorrow.

Move GA code to <head>; #633

I'm doing this so we can verify domain ownership with Google, so we can
use gmail for gittip.com.
