[jira] [Updated] (PODLINGNAMESEARCH-13) Establish whether "Apache Wookie" is a suitable name

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-13?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Scott Wilson updated PODLINGNAMESEARCH-13:
------------------------------------------

     Evidence Of Open Source Adoption: 
A search on Github for "Wookie" yields 14 repositories: 

- 7 of these are plugins for Apache Wookie, or ports of the Apache Wookie W3C library jar to other platforms/languages 
- "alto/wookie" is a Rails plugin for exporting stats; last updated 3 years ago 
- "CaioMatias/Wookie" is a Flash project framework 
- "BookieWookie" is a link-sharing plugin for Rails; last updated 3 years ago 
- "wookie-translator" is an "english-to-wookie" translator (probably a misspelling of "Wookiee" from Star Wars) 
- "wookie-cab-" is an empty project 
- "wookie-cam" is an empty project 
- "fernandoafb/wookie" is an empty project

A search on Sourceforge for "Wookie" yields 1 project: 

"http://wookilang.sourceforge.net/" 

"This is the Wooki Language Interpreter project ("wookilang") 

This project was registered on SourceForge.net on Apr 17, 2011, and is described by the project team as follows: 

It is a language and interpreter aiming to test data structures, with debugging tools."
    Evidence Of Use On World Wide Web: 
A Google search for "Wookie Software" shows Apache Wookie as the top 3 results; the 4th result is a reference in a course description to "Wookie" as a "software simulator for Windows that can simulate the function of a real 68HC11 microcontroller" (http://www.ele.uri.edu/courses/ele205/Lab03.pdf). Further searches show references in a few other electronics course descriptions, as recently as 2009. 

Much further into the results is a reference to WookieChat - and IRC client for the AmigaOS: 
http://wookiechat.amigarevolution.com/wookiechat/ 

There are also some references to a radio-related application on some forums, e.g.: 

"2100-WOOKIE-LAB- Field Programmer for the MOBIUS Radio-Series (Sky Walker) 2100 portables and mobiles radio with 5/6 Tone signalizing. v.R2.01beta SDVN4274A. 

Is dus Wookie lab software, is een Beta en daarom is hij niet volledig 100% betrouwbaar. Dat uit zich in het soms niet kunnen benaderen van de tuningmodus. Wookie wil bij het opslaan van je codeplug nog wel eens alle kanalen op eenzelfde frequentie zetten. Soms kun je met een nieuwe installatie wel in de tuningmodus komen. Maar de beste oplossing om dit uit te laten voeren door iemand met kennis van zaken (en die gebruikt de Ms-Dos RSS versie!)."
