I agree it would be nice to move away from jds- for the mailing list prefixes, but also agree that the effort to do so would probably not be worth the gain. If we moved from SVN to Hg (for example), then I think it would be worth it. > "Trusted JDS" was (is?) the actual name of a product (as was "JDS > Linux"), > so it doesn't make sense to refer to Trusted OSD until such a > product exists. I don't think Trusted JDS is officially a product, though would probably need to check the trademark directory on that one. Probably should just be something like 'Multi label aware desktop' or similar. (waiting for Stephen and others o prove me wrong) > Glynn
