[Joern Konopka <cldx3000@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I created a pull request that will update the extension naming to Atom
Launcher.

We discarded 'atom-overview' as a name cause we are not sure if we might
have other extensions that might live in the overview too and also it
seemed a little bit too invasive.
I hope this will settle the whole renaming from nos once and for all and
removes the confusion with stock Gnome Shell Dash :)

Atom Launcher describes what the Extension is supposed to do pretty
accurate.

Please see https://github.com/ozonos/atom-launcher/pull/9

The change should happen in a pretty non-disturbing way, if you're a
tester/developer though, don't forget to remove the old atom-dash folder
from your extensions and activate the 'new' extension cause it will
obviously install a new folder called atom-launcher@xxxxxxxxxx on the next
install.


Be cool People.
