We've finally reached the end. The name will be....
...SoylentNews.org!
I know, it's a bit anti-climactic, but we've gone over the results and our current name won by a significant margin. We'll follow up with a post detailing the voting results in a few days.
Edit: The results data are available in responses to this comment.
For what it's worth, there were a lot of us that would have like to see the name change. The staff even had a chance to override this decision, but instead we decided to support the community's choice.
I'd like to thank everyone who spent a lot of time (and in some cases money) suggesting domains, voting, and bearing with us through this long complex process. It turned into a huge, non-trivial task to pull off, and I appreciate your patience and understanding. We listened to your criticisms of the process as well and we've learned a lot about how we can significantly improve this process for the future.
Okay, now cue all the "I told you that SoylentNews would win!1!!1!!" comments...

Well, I liked SoylentNews.org and voted for it. So I am relieved it is staying the same.
I do realize that we needed a vote, but it did take much more effort and time that warranted.
Let us not spend too much effort on things that don't need it, and spend more effort where it is needed (e.g. more participants in submissions and commenting).
