Personally, I still prefer 'transcript' (I think that's what it was
called when I first encountered it), but surely the point is that it
is <actually> called "revolution".
In the context of deciding what to call it for the purposes of
inclusion in sites like stackoverflow, it really won't help if we all
just call it whatever we like.

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

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.

I saw on slashdot a link ( http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/

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 ?
