[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-143) HTML/Java API shall contain NetBeans name

["Bertrand Delacretaz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-143?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16253309#comment-16253309 ] 

Bertrand Delacretaz commented on NETBEANS-143:
----------------------------------------------

To me your description above sounds like something more powerful than an "HTML/Java API" which is a fairly vague name.

Maybe something like "NetBeans HTML Rendering Toolkit" would be stronger - but I don't know the module well enough to decide whether that does justice to the module's functionality.

Naming is hard...so just my 2 cents ;-)
