when I was getting feedback on wireframes and we talked about Roles,
there were various objections and not much suggestions. I would love to
call for action and think a bit about the term for concept currently
known as Role (= Resource Category).

This indeed a bit confusing, I think Role has mostly been rejected and I've seen Resource Category used the most since.


So far suggested terms:
* Role *
   - short name - plus points
   - quite overloaded term (user role, etc)

-1 for Role, I don't think short is a good enough reason.


* Resource Category *
   - pretty long (devs already shorten it - confusing)
   - Heat specific term

+0, I'ge gotten used to this, its quite long, but its not that bad.



* Resource Class *
   - older term

-0, this strikes me as confusing as what we are defining now is somewhat different to what a Resource Class was. However, if we can clear it up this name is otherwise fine.


Are there any other suggestions (ideally something short and accurate)?

I'll throw out a couple to start ideas -

- Resource Role (people seem to like Resource and role! ;-) )
- Resource Group
- Role Type
