I probably wont be using elev8 at any rate, but I'll point out that veering away from the names of the EFL library means that search engines will only find hits for elev8, when general EFL hits might be useful to. On the other hand, I prefer CamelCase. lol -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
