Who thought calling this "DOSBox Staging" as a good idea? Using that as the project name for a fork is (unintentionally?) confusing. Staging has a specific meaning with regard to software development, and additionally Wine Staging is a test branch for wine development. In both uses the "staging" software is implied to be part of the same project and maintainers, whereas this is a fork that's maintained by different developers with significant differences.
And I'm not the first to bring this up (github link that also links to a Debian bug tracker discussion) but the idea of naming it something less misleading got shot down over a nebulous argument about 'branding'.
