We have discovered that we are unlikely to be able to trademark "Apache Optiq", so we intend to change the name of the project to "Apache Calcite". The PPMC likes the name, and a trademark search reveals no competing uses of the name.
What are the next steps? Can someone who has been through the same process please share their check-list? (I know I will need to log lots of INFRA requests but it would help to know what these should be -- e.g. should I ask to rename the lists, two svn repositories, 3 git repos, wiki, web sites, old releases, jira project etc etc etc or create new ones and obsolete the old ones?) Release momentum is one of the good things we have going, so we will make a release under the new name, which will be apache-calcite-0.9.1-incubating, in the next few days. We will not have time to re-organize the code into new package names. I plan to launch the project under its new name, Apache Calcite, when I speak at Strata NY on 16th October. Julian
