AMD will later this year retire the AMD Catalyst branding and introduce something called 'Radeon Software Crimson Edition':

• AMD Catalyst is retiring and we are introducing a completely redesigned and reimagined Radeon Software. Radeon Software represents the breadth and depth of Radeon Technologies Group's Software focus. The forthcoming update will be called Radeon Software Crimson Edition.

• We're introducing a completely new and streamlined user interface called Radeon Settings.

• Radeon Software Crimson Edition will be available for everyone to download before the end of the year, and we’ll be sharing more details in the coming weeks.

One can hope that their drivers will also improve, a lick of paint means nothing if AMD's driver issues still remain as they are: a mess compared to NVIDIA.
This complaint isnt just for linux mind you, the windows drivers could use some help as well.
