Hi, Is anyone opposed to the proposed Jini project being called "Apache Jini" after the latest comments from the Jini community? They are essentially saying that it would make most sense for the project to maintain it's own specifications, and thus be "the" Jini implementation even though there is nothing stopping external projects from implementing some of the core components. I tend to agree with them that the name issue was at least partly based on a misunderstanding of the nature of the Jini technology and standards. I also acknowledge and support the Jini community's strong desire to keep the name.
Unless anyone objects to the name, I think the way forward is to revise the proposal to meet Jim's points 1 and 2 before proceeding to vote on accepting the project. If "Apache Jini" is still considered inappropriate, then the next step for us and the Jini community would be to come up with an alternative name for the project.
