I like 'cell' too. It makes sense. But "'cell' reminds me too much of batteries" could be a response here if we're going to say that "sectors remind me too much of disks". :) Batteries may less relate to computers, but there's: memory cell, 'Cell' processor. The question is.. is something like "cell" or "sector" or whatever really going to be confusing in the context of Openstack/Nova. 'Zone' is certainly an issue because of 'availability zone', so I think it's obviously not a choice. Anyway, I think 'cell' could be a good choice. At some point, I'd like to collect the ideas and put them up in a poll for vote. I suspect that's the only way we'll come to a fair conclusion. - Chris _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
