Hi Everyone,
In the recent weekly meeting, we discussed how we have repackaged GORM
related projects to be prefixed with 'grails-data-' coordinates, but
we have not made an effort to continue renaming GORM everywhere else.
This thread is to discuss people's thoughts on removing references to
GORM completely & only referring to Grails Persistence Libraries as
"Grails Data" going forward.
My thoughts:
1. We renamed it because GORM does not match implementations - not all
implementations are true ORMs anymore.
2. We have a trademark on Grails and do not have one on GORM. This
would allow us to enforce our brand.
3. Go has become significantly more popular and there's a conflicting
project using 'GORM': https://github.com/go-gorm/gorm This project
has existed since 2013, and due to previous names being not enforced,
I don't think it's feasible to change at this point.
I'm personally a +1 to only using Grails Data going forward and
dropping the GORM name.
