Hi all, 

It seems to me like the core problem here is that there are two distinct 
projects operating under one brand and it creates confusion. I agree with JB 
that the "ActiveMQ Classic" and "ActiveMQ 5" branding are not ideal. However, I 
think that renaming it to ActiveMQ Leto will further dilute the ActiveMQ brand 
and create more confusion for users. Why not just "ActiveMQ" and "Artemis"?

Thanks, 
Lucas

    Hi Justin,

    I would rather to ActiveMQ Leto 5.17.0 (and then Leto 6.0 at some point).
