Re: [ovirt-users] why is it called vdsm?
Well I would like to not call it "ovirt-agent" because there already is the "ovirt-guest_agent", so they could get confused by new users. I really don't know if a new name is necessary at all. What do you think are advantages? Disadvantages are: 1. waste of time for searching a new name (already happens in this discussion). 2. breakage if you search for the old/new name : you might end up with just half the relevant results because you used the old/new name.

This may only be true for native English speakers, and I believe "vdsm" originated in Israel. It's not a label that would have originated in the US due to it not being "work-friendly."

Re: [ovirt-users] why is it called vdsm?
for the little story, when I began to use ovirt in 2012, a french google search gave me on the first page a full list of "BDSM" result, which relies to Bonding for the B letter, but in reality for masochism :) that was very funny but not very serious :) Le 13/02/2015 16:49, Francesco Romani a écrit : - Original Message - From: "Greg Sheremeta" To: de...@ovirt.org, "users" Sent: Friday, February 13, 2015 3:04:51 PM Subject: [ovirt-users] why is it called vdsm?
