That sounds very drastic. A last resort?
Not really, it annoys me for some years that t2 does not indexes well, due to full
text search engines kind of not accounting short words (like <= 3) and additionally by
now there is a dvb-t received named t2 as well as "Sun"'s T2 sparc cpu, ...
As t2 was just the initial SVN repository name, maybe it is time for a "real" name to
help spreading the word, (and find our own references with an inet search).
Here's a suggestion to start things off: SystemConstructor.
SystemMaker and SystemBuilder are taken.
I was think about using something completely artificial, that does bring up 0 google
hits at all. Because anything else (like T2 brings up Terminator II, Sun T2, DVB-T
receiver, etc. even SDE brings up whatever Java fluff, ...) will produce collateral
hits. Using something unique will also help to really notice where our system is
discussed, ...
Something like:
Your search - *nuxtraka* - did not match any documents.
And no, that was just some random try, I need to seriously meditate over it to grip a
good name :-)
Hi Rene,
Perhaps you should consider 2 different names:
One name for the Linux distribution(s) produced by the SDE, ans a different name for the
SDE/Build system.
This would follow the naming pattern that Gentoo & OpenEmbedded use:
Linux distribution name: gentoo or Openembedded
SDE name: Portage (gentoo) BitBake (openembedded)
This will help erase the confusion that lingers around the current T2 project. The Guy
who deleted the wikipedia entry did not understand that T2 is (among other things) a Linux
distribution, I think if he understood that, the article may not have been deleted.
He also did not comprehend that there was a unique comprehensive build system
involved.
Having a separate name for the linux distribution would allow you to better market the
generic pre-build .iso images for x86 platforms, and save the general (non developer) end
user a lot of confusion in dealing with the whole meta-distribution building aspects, if
he just wants Linux on a CD.
Having a separate name for the Development system would allow you to better package it,
and market it to embedded developers to use as tool chain alternitive for their cross
built embedded projects.
