I'm in favour of boring as I'm pushing for a Jakarta made up of components, and not sub-projects. Http Components, Web Components would just be groupings of components to improve the information architecture of the site/mail-lists/whatever where necessary.

Catchy names would be used for the components, not groupings.

I'd also prefer a one-word catchy name to something uber-geeky like
Web Components, so if we really can't use Silk we can come up with
some other options and have a new vote...

Apache Silk it is:

20 +1 votes with 1 abstainer.

So now we can finish the proposal, get it voted on and start with the fun
stuff.

Okay. I've been unable to get this resolved - for the following reasons:

* Segue's SilkXxx web testing suite seems to clash on the trademark.

* General lack of response on PRC on the trademark issue. We lack decision
making on the grey line at the moment - but after having this sit on the
back burner for many months I'm of the opinion that we clash too much with
the Segue trademark.

* Jakarta Web Components matches Jakarta Http Components in pattern and
fits the proposals I've made on restructuring Jakarta (ie: they're both
groupings).

So I'd like to suggest we go ahead with Jakarta Web Components.

Any thoughts? And sorry for taking so long to bring this up, it's been on
my todo list since ApacheCon.
