Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

I suggest sticking to "noise" codename at least for Luna; we can change the name along with the expected refactoring later, and it's be nice to have a way to easily refer to the codebase we have now. The two concurrent LP projects with different codenames would be especially useful in case we choos

Music gets a +1 from me as well. Honestly, I think that we either need to keep it Noise or rename it to Music. Changing the name to anything else really seems unnecessary at this point. Regarding the generic name thing, I think that's something we should decide on a per-app basis. Technically its

I'm for Music. I also think music is what development should center around and leave podcasts and maybe even radio to separate apps. Podcasts because they really need a store experience, otherwise you'd be better off just subscribing to them in an RSS aggregator. Sent from my iPhone On Nov 20, 20

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

I'm all for just going the GNOME Direction and calling it "Music". This applies to all other apps (some are already like this, such as Files and Terminal). It is just so much simpler for the user to see something like "Web" rather than "Midori" (which has nothing to do with the web). So yeah, "Mus

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

Just my two cents: It'd be really easy to just call it "Music" and not worry about it any longer haha. I don't think we should translate the name unless we're going with "Music". Translating a "branded" name would kind of defeat the purpose, IMO and (as previously pointed out) could lead to some

Thanks for your replies, I agree with most of the comments. Some clarifications: 1. I'm not proposing Tempo as the new name. We'd still need to evaluate alternatives. If it were my choice I would have re-named the player to "Melody" a long time ago. 2. Currently, the *only reason* mot

Those are pretty much my thoughts as well.. I don't think renaming the app for a third time would be productive at this point... It will probably just lead to more confusion. On Nov 19, 2012 11:57 AM, "Darcy Brás da Silva" wrote: > I think that translating names would only make sense if the names

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

I think that translating names would only make sense if the names were like 'web browser, media player, and so on' else they are primary nouns and so not translatable. I think there is no gain in changing the name at this point, else then showing project immaturity. At this point the name already

I understand the issue with the translation. From what I understand (as french being my second language) the translation from Noise to french is Bruit. I'm not sure if the application titles have been (or will be) translated, but if so "Bruit" gives the same proper description of what Noise is i

Okay, I disagree with you all then because in my language (french) there is two way to pronounce that : In french, and that word exists and means "problems" In english, and that is really hard because there is an double voyel (no-ise) so it's not that good for us. I let the democracy choose, but

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

I also agree that Noise is an appropriate name for the player. I feel that this naming scheme is most relevant to the player, as opposed to Tempo or some of the others that have been mentioned. Noise seems more generic and straight-forward as to what the app is meant to do. On Mon, 19 Nov, 2012

Don't we already present Noise in the OS as a music player? Doesn't the icon have the purpose of showing the user what the app probably does? IMO "Noise" relates more to music than "Tempo" does. Also, if we are going this way with Noise because the name should directly show people what the app d

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Renaming Noise

It's trivial to you because you know what Noise is. It's a media player, you know it. For people who don't, it's better if that name it is installed under in the computer is "Music Player" or something like that. It's easier for most people. On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 1:23 PM, Jaap Broekhuizen | Mo

Hi everybody, many months ago we were discussing the possibility of renaming Noiseto something else. If I recall correctly, there was a Facebook poll that resulted in *"Tempo"* being the preferred name. The blueprint is here
