Hi Dan, I don't care in the slightest what the names are.
I do care that 1 and only 1 name be used for any board. Or there is a complete name translation table readily available. So for example, say I want to purchase a blank PCB for what is listed below as the ADC2x1000-8. In the past I have always had to ask Cirexx or Streamline or whomever to quote a 196-002 board. Not "ADC v1.1" not "BEE2 ADC board" and not "ADC2x1000-8". So my vote is: please change to whatever name you and the others want. And then publicly release a name translation table so that one can map that new name to actual purchasable entities.
