Hi Folks,

Maybe several of you already know that we are finalizing the setup for the
name of puddling, and we have one complaint from a reviewing member where
he said that "wayang" could be associated with 'puppet'.

We try to show him that "wayang" is a concept, but it is not enough because
it has a relation with 'puppet'. If we want to conserve the name, we have
the following options:

a) the podling chooses a new name
b) the podling provide enough argument for "Wayang" does not conflict with
"Puppet"
c) the podling obtains agreement from Puppet Inc that Puppet Inc has no
objection to the ASF's use of the "Wayang" name
d) the podling appeals to the ASF president to overrule the current decision

In the case of option "B", a group of the community members try to
formulate arguments about that wayang is the concept behind the ancestral
theater of java island. However, it was not enough. If you have a legal
base, it could be an excellent option to add to the justifications.

In the case of option "C", Alex is trying to contact a friend that works in
Puppet Inc. Nevertheless, if one of you has contact with someone in Puppet
Inc, it could help us speed up the process.

Regarding option "D", if we want to follow this option, we need to prepare
a good argument with legal fundamentals and focus on the concept of wayang.

Finally, the option "A" throws away all the work around the name of Apache
Wayang to make it popular, and we start from scratch the process again but
with a new name.

Now the vote is, which path do we want to follow concerning our options?

Best regards,
Bertty
