I'm not sure of the legalities in this
They've mentioned TheNXTStep and NXTasy since before 2006 (that's when I started), so I'm sure it won't be "illegal". Besides, it's their website. :)

Whether Customer Support or whoever we contact has enough privileges to change this is another matter...

True, but TheNXTStep and NXTasy weren't big companies (i'm not saying it's illegal)

I have just commited and I really hope we will have enough committers one day...
24% complete at the moment, we are still far from the objective. :/

Got those as well. :)
Oh man, I feel so stupid asking such a noob question, I guess I'm just new to the StackEchange system, but why am I unable to rate questions or comment on them? I don't see any buttons here:

I'm logged into my account, I'm commited to that proposal, and I've checked my profile to ensure that I have the privileges to rate questions good, flag them, and leave comments. So I can't see the problem, Does my account have to be of a certain age?
