Nah, that's like all the GNU projects named G* (GNOME, Gnews, GIMP, etc.).
Just because other Java developers do it doesn't mean we should...
Although 'ARMI', Apache Remote Method Invocation, has a nice ring to it ;P
Of course you can use the RPC naming from "Remote Procedure Calls". Or
you could use some form of Delegator in the name.
ARDel, Apache Remote Delegator.
ReDel, Remote Delegator.
RD, Remote Delegator.
HaRD, Hammant's Remote Delegator (although some people might find this
offensive ;P ).
Or you can move in the "Remote Control" arena with RC style acronyms.
ARC, Apache Remote Control
ReC, Remote Control
JERC, Java Extreme Remote Control (That has some possibilities :)
Or you can take the spelling suggestion that my browser has for AltRMI:
Antrim
Hmm.
Another Remote Invocation Mechanism: AntRIM
It has a certain ring to it...
