/me grabs paintbrush for bikeshed
If FAD really irks enough people then Fedora $foo Sprints (where $foo is
the thing) seems good to me.
So - you'd have like Fedora Cloud Sprint 2016, Fedora Docs Sprint 2016,
We've heard similar suggestions about FUDCon as well (Fear, Uncertainty,
Doubt), but we are still using that one in many regions too. Internally, it
means something different to Fedora, which is the primary audience you want
to engage with.
The important thing here is to adhere to the budget and organizing
guidelines, but if you want to call it something else, by all means.
