The distribution target would be "dROCK".

But DBK or Distribution Build Kit is not a name. That would be like naming
a project like the Linux Kernel "POSIX conforming operating system
kernel". It is a description - not a name.

A name should be short enought to be used as one single word, should be
abstract enought be a unique name instead a formal description and should
sound good.
