A project needs a name. Here are some suggestions,
with varying degrees of seriousness.

- HttpComponents
  That would be the core of the active codebase.
  But http://httpcomponents.apache.org is too clumsy.

- Slide
  Short and sounds good, and the root of it all.
  But it's an established name, associated with a
  project of a very different scope.

- Truposas
  The Re-United Project Originally Started As Slide.
  I wonder whether there is a language in which that
  is an insult :-)

- Glaahay
  Geeks Love Acronyms, And How About You?
  Getting silly, isn't it? ;-)

- Hataraku [1-4]
  Pronounce ha-ta-ra-k, with short "a" as in yadda-yadda.
  That's japanese for "to work", with double meaning:
  You've got to work to make it work. "ku" is a suffix.
  Taking just the consonants of the root, you get: H T R
  that's for "HTTP and Related". My favorite, obviously.

Other suggestions? Comments?

cheers,
  Roland
