Branding and naming goes against GitHub's policies about github-awards

Thanks for raising this issue. I actually tried to reach GitHub without success.
Renaming the project would be the worst solution. If GitHub is worried about the branding i would love to address this issue with them and figure out a proper solution.

Untill then I will make the statement in the footer larger : "This project is not affiliated with the GitHub company in any way."

Regarding the logo : the background is using octicons

Adding a footer does not address the fact that your project breaks their policies in terms of naming, especially when the footer is below the visible screen space on a 1366x768 screen (most popular screen size according to http://gs.statcounter.com/#resolution-ww-monthly-201411-201501).

I love this project, a lot, but I have to agree with @lukeb-uk. The name should be changed posthaste. A name change won't kill a great project (see Aura PHP [name changed from Solr to Aura] and Common Markdown). I would hate to see this get shut down over naming conflicts and ToS violations.

FWIW, I have a small amount of reach in the PHP community, especially on Twitter. I'd be happy to help market a name change with the little bit of reach that I have.

You have a point. I tried to reach GitHub without success, ultimately it's their decision. Untill then, i'm closing this issue now.
