Calling the program "Revolution" and calling the programming language "Revolution" is certainly confusing. The name "Revolution" is not all that great to begin with. I call the program "Rev" and the language "Revcode". I use "Revcode" as both a noun and a verb. I like "Rev" because it means go faster; you "rev" an engine. "Revcode" is, as we all know, fast code.

Originally they called in Transcript - but I guess somewhere along the line they had an in-house marketing talk and decided to get the name out more. It's all a bit confusing. I use Revcode as short hand, and to distinguish it
from the Revolution IDE. It's also easier to search for on the web -
something I think RunRev discovered at their cost when naming their product
with a common English word.

RunRev call it "revolution", so I'd think that would be the right tag,
though perhaps "revolution/transcript" might be more useful.

Best,

I saw on slashdot a link ( http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/ 2008/09/15.html

programming. The site itself ( http://stackoverflow.com/ ) looks
interesting, and it just might be a good place to ask (and answer) questions about Rev, assuming the collaborative editing and voting system works well.

Anyone think we should try it out ?
What tag should we use ... Revolution ?  Transcript ?
