or nagoya.betaversion.org :-D
No, you didn't get my point. I don't want to be dense, but I think this is a very important.

The name of the machine is 'nagoya' and there are at least two different DNSs that point to it: 'apache.org' and 'betaversion.org' (the second being mostly for critical fail-over, nagoya acts as secondary DNS for betaversion.org but just that)

If we keep 'cocoondev.org' as the machine name and we move it to the Apache DNS, do you think people will like to have a DNS entry like

cocoondev.org.apache.org

I already hear Pierpaolo screaming *very* loud if you propose that :)

any idea? The machine name IS cocoondev.org - so if it really must be
changed, I'd rather let the community decide. OTOH, nagoya's machine
name hasn't much to do with apache, neither.
Neither deadalus or icarus.

But you're right, we should have this community decide the name.

Just let's do this after the votation is over, please.
