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.
