Hello Hervé, I would suggest that "mojo" is quite unknown for most developers (who are non-maven-plugin developers) out there. Few would even contemplate calling the plugins by their full - or even abbreviated - name. Whenever I hear people talking about a plugin, they simply say "the aspectj plugin" or equivalent. Not "the aspectj-maven-plugin" - and definitely not "Mojo's aspectj-maven-plugin".
Hence, I don't think that the Mojo "brand" is well-known at all (actually, it is more confusing since it can be mixed up with the name of the Mojo interface and AbstractMojo implementation). I don't even believe that the "Codehaus" brand is well-known to the genereal development community. If anything, the names of the plugins themselves *could* be known. So ... if we are going to refactor the Codehaus codebase and organisation, let's do it to best match the future demands. I would also suggest being *very* clear about presenting the reason that the Codehaus/Mojo project develops Maven plugins instead of the projects themselves. For example - it would seem apparent that the AspectJ project should develop an aspectj-maven-plugin. However, that plugin is developed by Codehaus, and I believe that we should be a bit clearer in documenting why. Fair? 2015-03-05 9:24 GMT+01:00 Hervé BOUTEMY <herve.bout...@free.fr>: > Le mercredi 4 mars 2015 14:16:08 vous avez écrit : > > *Project name* > > May not be a concern, but that needs to be cleared out sooner than later. > > I think that one of the most pressing subject may indeed not be technical > > but about the name of our project: what name should/could we use for the > > project. > > > > Should/could it stay "'Codehaus Mojo" on GitHub even after Codehaus EOL > > (meaning we'd certainly use https://github.com/codehaus-mojo org)? or > > "Maven Mojo" (which would make googling for it quite difficult btw)?
