gerhard/thomas The problem I have with "bv" is that no one refers to BeanValidation as bv (in fact, Bean Validation is the shortened form of JavaBeans Validation). Doing a quick google search on bv shows me some STDs. Since google is typically stalking me and knows I ask lots of programming questions, it would typically return the programming references first.
Doing a google search for "bv bean validation" shows beanvalidation.org, however there are no references to bv on that site. romain Yes, I think using "bval" ties us closely to the Apache impl. I think I generally prefer longer names. For example, we chose partial-bean rather than pb. If it were bean-val instead of beanval, would anyone mind that?
