I would tend to agree here as well.  I've run into this myself with others not sure what the name is.  If we went with @AeroGearTeam it is clear what the diffs are and its only 3 characters more.

I'd like to close the loop on this discussion one way or another.

My vote is that we change the twitter handle to "@AeroGearTeam" with a very close secondary choice of "@AeroGearOrg"
