We have to phase out the trademark or attention getting use of the code name 
"Quantum" when referring to the the OpenStack Networking project, as part of a 
legal agreement with Quantum Corporation, the owner of the "Quantum" trademark. 
The Board of Directors and Technical Committee members involved in Networking 
related development and documentation were notified so we could start working 
to remove "Quantum" from public references.


We made a lot of progress updating public references during the Grizzly release 
cycle and will continue that work through Havana as well. The highest priority 
items to update are locations that are attention getting and public--our 
biggest area of work remaining is probably on the wiki, where we could really 
use everyone's help. In other official communications, we refer to the projects 
by their functional OpenStack names (Compute, Object Storage, Networking, etc).

At the summit we have a session scheduled to talk about project names generally 
and the path forward for OpenStack Networking specifically. For instance, in 
places where there is a need for something shorter, such as the CLI, we could 
come up with a new code name or use something more descriptive like 
"os-network." This is a question it probably makes sense to look at across 
projects at the same time. If you have input on this, please come participate 
in the session Thursday April 18 at 4:10pm:
