We can do better in conveying what people are actually downloading from Eclipse. We have definitely dropped the ball when it comes to naming things.Chris Aniszczyk (zx)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14067673601779593093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894227311622961549.post-63995533082452533172008-12-18T16:54:00.000-08:002008-12-18T16:54:00.000-08:00Doug, I hope that people take note of these great ...Doug, I hope that people take note of these great summaries when next they have an opportunity to vote for their 2009 committer reps.Ed Merkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05000982591510437551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894227311622961549.post-73535230000889819732008-12-18T11:23:00.000-08:002008-12-18T11:23:00.000-08:00Excellent summary as usual Doug.

I've been thinking that it would be good to use a clearly defined technology that's familiar to the broader user community, not just Eclipse insiders. Currently we refer to the downloads as:<BR/>* Eclipse Packages<BR/>* EPP Packages<BR/>* Eclipse Downloads<BR/>* Member Distros<BR/><BR/>The word "package" has product-level connotations. This Christmas I'm hoping to open a pizza-box shaped package and find a Blu-Ray related product in it. <BR/><BR/>What if we switch to something like:<BR/>* Eclipse Distributions: open source distributions of Eclipse technology<BR/>* Eclipse Products: member packagings that qualify for the "built on Eclipse" logo<BR/><BR/>This would be consistent with the Linux community's use of the "<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_(software)" REL="nofollow">distributions</A>".<BR/><BR/>--<BR/>Mik Kersten<BR/>CEO, <A HREF="http://tasktop.com/blog" REL="nofollow">http://tasktop.com/blog</A><BR/>Lead, <A HREF="http://eclipse.org/mylyn" REL="nofollow">http://eclipse.org/mylyn</A>Mik Kerstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097030325844385383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894227311622961549.post-44432799725511151922008-12-18T09:51:00.000-08:002008-12-18T09:51:00.000-08:00Thank you for the great writeup put up in a timely...Thank you for the great writeup put up in a timely manner.Darin Swansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14947935363512132811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894227311622961549.post-44179234769735267392008-12-18T08:29:00.000-08:002008-12-18T08:29:00.000-08:00I had my answer.
