I would prefer 'IoBuffer', which meshes nicely with IoSession, etc.

It also removes the similarity from ByteBuffer since some seemed to frown on 
that.

Subject: New name for ByteBuffer?

Hi folks,

It is often confusing to discriminate MINA ByteBuffer and NIO
ByteBuffer.  Do we need renaming?  I didn't have much difficulties
actually because most Java code doesn't use both types at the same
time.

There was an opinion about renaming it to MinaByteBuffer, but I don't
think it's the best name available for us.  I think DataBuffer,
ExtendedByteBuffer, ExtendedBuffer or just Buffer might also be a
candidate.  There's Buffer in NIO, too, but nobody uses that class
directly.

I'd like to find the best name; short and not confusing one.  Please
don't hesitate to respond to this message with your idea so we can
find out the best alternative.

Trustin
