PaperNIC – Open Source Document Management and Collaboration System

Any information on what is NIC supposed to stand for here? Because it's certainly not Network Interface Controller.

The other thing that stands out to me, and not in a good way, is the "%8" instead of "8%" in the example screenshot (meanwhile, the upload progress syas "100%".)

I first thought of (NIC) as in Network Information Center... which is commonly used for Domain Registars names, i.e. InterNIC or DirectNIC.

As this seems like a service that's searching and storing information, I can see it kinda acting like DNS and this place being the registrar of information.
