To our satisfaction the project seems to have done well; the base line of features that were available to the networking component of OpenStack (then nova-network) has grown quite a bit and seem to have gained a successful momentum with the communities, both development and operators. However, Neutron appears to be a trademarked name [1], and after thoroughly discussing the issue with our and Marvel' legal departments both sides have reached the conclusion that a naming scheme is an obligatory amendment and unfortunately is the only viable option. An obvious resolution to this issue is reverting the old "Quantum" name back. However, this is subject to change and review from the PTL and as such, we'll shortly propose a relevant change to the review system. We anticipate the review process to be be swift, to avoid further legal implications. To be perfectly honest with you, I always liked the 'Quantum' name more. With the ongoing release cycle called 'Newton', my hatred for the 'Neutron' name has increased, since I keep mispronouncing with 'Neutron' and vice versa. Therefore I can't express my gratitude enough for this well timed proposal. You got my +2, though you got get behind governance change [1] first. Happy hacking!
