Do you mean "MetaModel Federator" or "MetaModel Federation"? I was Federator on
the short list, but Federation in your last mail.
Anyway, my vote goes to Membrane.

They don't seem so memerable to me TBH.
I guess I'm leaning towards MetaModel Federation. Shall we have a vote?

Hello
Then I suggest also:
- Intertwine
- Link
- Bond
- Mingle
- Transduce (or Transducer)

One thing ... Try to say "MetaModel Membrane" really quick ... it's a lot

I don't mind Membrane, but to me it is the opposite: A membrane is a
partition or barrier. It doesn't bind anything together.
Still works though; Most membranes allows some things to pass through it,
while keeping others separate. :)

Hmm I like the idea of membrane. Not for it's "interface"ness, but for
it's metaphor of binding things together (oh well, I guess interfaces do
that too, but IMO the metaphor is stronger here for e.g. cross-querying
datastores and such).
So I would modify my preference to either:
MetaModel Federator
MetaModel Membrane

Hello
'Federator' is ok for me (else it fullname would be 'Apache MetaModel
Model Federator')
But I suggest also
- 'enterprise' as a Trekkie wink
- metaphors for 'interface' like 'membrane'
- metaphors of 'interact' like 'admix', 'mingle'
- metaphors for 'exchange' like 'swapper' or 'exchanger'
- metaphors for API like 'interoperator'

I personally like "MetaModel Federator". Or some word/phrase that
catches the meaning of federation / collection / gathering /
centralization.

Hi all,
As per the VOTE thread and VOTE RESULT just before, we are creating
a new subproject for the REST API webapp for MetaModel.
So the question arises: What should we name it.
Here are the suggestions that people passed in the VOTE thread. Can
you indicate what you prefer, or if you have other suggestions?
RESTMetaDataFederation
MetaModel Federator
MetaFederator
Quid pro quo
Waggle dance
Wanderlust
Lindy hop
Fair trade
In addition, please consider that there are certain naming
considerations that the ASF asks of us [1]. We will probably make it
easier for ourselves if the subproject name is prefixed with "Apache
MetaModel" as to avoid too much legal research to have to take
place.

Best regards,
Kasper
