Opinions (was: Subversion - Seeding incubator/openofficeorg/ please)
I wanted to raise this query to the surface for input: the name in the
repository. This is easily changed, so it's really just about ongoing
perception.
* I used "ooo" to match the mailing list names and to keep URLs short
* Christian used "openofficeorg" to match some podling references
Do people have any preference? I'll rejigger the directories after a
reasonably clear consensus. I can see both approaches.
I may be able to immediately start some authz stuff, per Sam's note.
Cheers,

Hi all,
the longer one is the official and formal name and the shorter one the
perfect acronym since a very long time. And as Phillip states correct it
saves typing always when you have to enter an URL to the repo.
+1 for ooo

I prefer the shorter one. Anything to save typing is a +1 in my book.

"ooo" is preferred. Developers like to save keystrokes. :-)

My suggestion is to leave them both be for now, but reserve the incubator/openofficeorg/ one for whatever is brought over, in whatever structure it is brought over in. Not sure what that leaves ooo/ for, but I'm sure we can think of something, especially since we are in a kind of quiet period where I don't think we should be rolling OpenOffice.org code just yet.

As many people prefer ooo, i have updated the podling status file to
svn name "ooo" and removed the longer folder name from the svn.
Cheers all
