Hi folks,
I know I'm coming late to this party, but I wanted to ask if there had
been any further discussion or foreward movement towards the Garma and
Etoile merge. I would like to see this merge happen very much. I think
it will be beneficial for all involved. Svn is now up, so that wish
from Quentin's original e-mail is history.
We discussed a bit the merge on Garma mailing list...
Nothing done yet, but we should effectively try to move things up,
considering we have svn up now :)
Along those lines, after reading the mailing list archives from
earlier this month, I'd also like to voice my support for what I think
is a superb name: Resonance, which looks to have been originally
suggested by Quentin. It looked like there was some consensus on the
name, but perhaps that Banlu had some minor reservations about it. Has
any official decision been made on this issue? I really think the name
would be great.
As for a domain, which nicolas voiced as a concern, I am sure it would
be no problem at all to have resonance.gnustep.org be permanently
HTTP-redirected to wherever the resonance web page is hosted. Also,
the person who runs/owns resonance.org seems to link to at least one
linux GTK app, so they may be willing to work out some sort of usage
arrangement. I could talk to them if you guys are interested, since he
seems to not live too far from me.
Well actually, Resonnance is not the definitive name anyway --
basically, we _don't_ have choosen a name yet ;-)
We should have sent a mail discussing about the names a few days ago,
but well, we're all busy :-) , so
here it is..
- If you have an idea for a name, go on !
- the only "limit" is that we would like a real name, not an acronyme
(KDE, GNU..), at most a composed name.. and of course it should sound
nice, etc., etc.
- Quentin for example proposed "Resonance" which is quite cool imho,
but we need to decide that together.
So, reactions ?
Cheers,
