In this thread, let's see if we can list out what needs to be done to
rename the code.

I think for the ActionScript code, the steps are:

1) go through each folder in framework/projects and do:
   git mv src/main/flex src/main/royale
   git mv src/main/flex/org/apache/flex src/main/flex/org/apache/royale

2) from the root of the repo:
   find . -name *.as -exec sed -i *.bak
's/org\.apache\.flex/org\.apache\.royale/g' {} \;
   find . -name *.xml -exec sed -i *.bak
's/org\.apache\.flex/org\.apache\.royale/g' {} \;
   find . -name *.xml -exec sed -i *.bak
's/src\/main\/flex/src\/main\/royale/g' {} \;
   find . -name *.xml -exec sed -i *.bak
's/org\/apache\/flex/org\/apache\/royale/g' {} \;
   find . -name *.bak -delete

What else is needed?  I think the hard/boring part is dealing with
documentation.  We have to go through:
Wiki
ASDoc
LICENSE
README
RELEASE_NOTES
NOTICE

And find/replace FlexJS and Flex and review each change as we may
reference regular Flex and are likely to still have a product called
FlexJS.


Thoughts?
