We had a nice discussion 'bout this on avalon-dev a while back. You can read the thread at
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg07495.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg07589.html This was about nondescriptive naming of packages inside a subproject with a nondescriptive name inside a jakarta project with a nondescriptive name, inside jakarta, which has a nondescriptive name. Basically, it'd be nice to call Avalon "ServicesFramework4J", but its not really fair to do so (Turbine's Stratum is also a "ServicesFramework4J"), so we don't. Deal with it. BTW, I've found that "hardcore coding" is absolutely _the_ place for what you call "stupid names": linux GNU Emacs Bash Less Apache Jakarta Gnome (...) grz, - Leo, typing a message inside Ximian Evolution, running on Red Hat linux, not getting annoyed at any of those names On Mon, 2002-04-29 at 10:11, Endre St�lsvik wrote: > On Wed, 24 Apr 2002, Jon Scott Stevens wrote: > > | One more thing, come up with a more creative name. :-) > | > | The whole FooBar4J thing is tired IMHO. > > May I say that the whole Jakarta naming scheme is really tired, imho.
