At Merck, the name TMC originally stood for "Tomcat Management Console" As the tool set evolved, the ability to manage Apache httpd was added. The full name simply was changed to "The Management Console". The g2 is a Merck item and should very well be dropped. We have been evaluating other names, and I would like to propose "Kowa" "An Apache dwelling consisting of a dome shaped frame of cottonwood or other poles, and thatched with grass. The house itself was termed, Kowa and the grass thatch, Pi".

It would be nice to find something more appropriate before starting to create too many mailing lists. vh Mads Toftum -- `Darn it, who spiked my coffee with water?!' - lwall --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Notice: This e-mail message, together with any attachments, contains information of Merck & Co., Inc.
