Gnus renaming?

Gnus renaming?

[Ted Zlatanov]

I think we should rename Gnus with the next version.  I am simply
embarassed to use that name in conversation and on my resume, it sounds
so... zoological.

"Sung" is a good name, or perhaps "Snug"--something to indicate the
harmony and tight coupling between all the components.

"Guns" is also good.  The project slogan can be "everyone gets it."

I'm open to other suggestions.

Thanks
Ted

I don't want a renaming.

I'm kinda attached to the existing one.

But then... it's not on my resume, and I'm just a user.

Well... someone had to bite... and that someone was me. :-)

(I walked right into two such ones, with both feet, this year.  To my
defence, both happened in the afternoon when my alertness had gone)

Hehe, I almost bought it too - "zoological" sounded a little weird, and
then the suggestions for new names set the alarm bells off finally.


  Best regards,
