Re: [VOTE] Rename Apache Connectors Framework to ManifoldCF

[Karl Wright]

I let the vote remain open to this evening.  I tried to post to that
effect but it didn't make it through for some reason.

Anyway, vote is now closed.  I'll post the results under a separate subject.

 Vote +1 to rename Apache Connectors Framework to Apache ManifoldCF.
 Vote -1 to keep the project name of Connectors Framework, or to retain
 Connex, if that wins its vote.

 This vote also expires end of day on Friday.

 Note: Manifold is a trademark for a GIS software product.  However,
 I agree with Grant that ManifoldCF appearing under the Apache label
 should be safe to be used.  But you should recognize that this vote is
 not merely a referendum on the name itself, but also on the
 suitability of the name in a legal context.

[RESULT][VOTE] Rename Apache Connectors Framework to ManifoldCF

[Karl Wright]

The vote passes.  Barely.  Total count +1.  Although I believe we
didn't hear from lots of folks that made ManifoldCF their #1 choice
last time.

So, our new name is ManifoldCF.  I'm thinking this will translate to:

org.apache.mcf
MCFException
MCF abbreviation
ManifoldCF full name
webapps mcf-crawler-ui, mcf-authority-service, mcf-api-service


... and I can begin to change the tree around probably by tomorrow
morning.  Sound okay to everyone?
