Re: [Openstack] [OpenStack Marketing] New code name for networks
And the foundation will try to vet and filter the list before the vote to reduce the likelihood of a repeat of the Quantum situation. You can use me as the point of contact for that and I'll work with our trademark legal team.

Just as a consideration to the Nova project (and probably others), it would be *really* nice if the new name was also 7 characters. There are currently 351 occurrences of the word quantum in the Nova code in current master, some of them will have pep8 implications after changing, if the length of the word changes. This probably bites quantum internally as well, but it's worth making sure it's highlighted. -Sean -- Sean Dague http://dague.net ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
