Hi Alex ... first ... the official name should probably even contain the "Apache Flex" so I guess the correct name would probably be "Apache Flex FlexJS Compiler"
The names don't really matter for maven ... we could call them "js" and Maven would be fine with them, but I tend to give my artifacts a little more context. For example if we name the jquery extern "jquery" then there is the "jquery" framework project of ASJS with the same name. Of course I would give both a different groupId, but still it will probably cause a little more problems. If we name the artifacts "flexjs-externs-jquery" and "flexjs-framework-jquery" the context is well-defined. But If the majority wants the "jquery" artifactId for both, I would simply adjust the artifactIds.

The true official full name has to start with Apache though: "Apache FlexJS Compiler". I don't know if you can leave "apache" off the artifact names. Related to this, I noticed in the Maven builds, the SWCs are getting longer names as well. So what we've been referring to as "js.swc" is now "flexjs-externs-js-0.6.0.swc" and may have to be called "apache-flexjs-externs-js-0.6.0.swc". I guess I can see how that might be important for Maven, but I'm just wondering about having to use the longer name in the documentation and other places like the IDE library path dialogs. Maybe the Ant builds and IDE installers should go with shorter names? Thoughts? -Alex
