Is it me, or are they trying to hide the Brackets / Adobe relation ?

We aren't trying to hide Adobe involvement with Brackets, but it's very important to recognize that this isn't "Adobe Brackets", it's just "Brackets". This is a community driven project. Adobe is just the benefactor.
I think that putting Adobe's logo / name next to everything would overshadow all the work and contributions from the community.

I don't think so. There's some Adobe heavyweights involved with the project.
The flipside is Twitter Bootstrap, which was never an "official" Twitter project.

It says right on the home page that it's maintained by Adobe & the github repos are all maintained by Adobe as well. Just curious, do you think Adobe has a bad reputation for making software that would make them want to dis-associate with the company?

Personally, I think Adobe has a bad reputation for making software. Flash, Dreamweaver and Acrobat comes to mind.
Flash - Difficult to work with (I know most beginners struggle with it). Dreamweaver - Bloated software that generates weird HTML code. Acrobat - Slow and bloated software. Can't a PDF reader be simpler ?
But as adrocknaphobia pointed out 'this isn't "Adobe Brackets", it's just "Brackets"'. Turns out there's no hiding after-all.
