Open Stack

Hi,

I’ve just gotten around to reading this thread. I agree very strongly with Amanda that OpenStack project names should be capitalized. Frankly, this has driven me nuts for a while. :-) “Neutron" is a specific thing - a proper noun, and deserves to be capitalized. It’s not a generic thing like “networking” (which we do capitalize.) Aargh.


Cheers,
Robb

No, no.. your vote most certainly did count! I replied last night but my email was caught and held by the mailing list for being too long.

I was wondering about only 9 people responding as well. I agree that they likely don't have a strong opinion one way or the other and will be fine with either.

Here was what I sent:

"Well, the current tally is 5 for lowercase and 4 for mixed case. So the status quo has the lead by a hair.

As the instigator of the request, I am naturally hoping for a rally to the mixed case cause but overall have been delighted by our civil discourse. Probably because nerding out over the finer points (and counter-points) of language is such fun. "


Thanks :)
Amanda

My vote doesn't count? I also note that most of the active contributors didn't respond, I suspect because they see it as a non-issue.
