Liked most names posted here.

 Subject: Re: Better name than "RDF Tools for Apache Hadoop"?
   
I do like that and I'll add it to the list of possibilities.

Though I wonder if it might be a bit tongue in cheek naming a big data
project a word that translates as "the art of singing and dancing".
Particularly since I've seen a certain amount of stuff implying that the
big data movement is reaching the so-called trough of disillusionment

Other new suggestions from the wider community via Twitter:

- Leave as-is but acronym down to TFH - Note that TFH is a rotational
ciphering of RDF -

- Tridoop - I like this slightly better than Quadoop -

- Howda - https://twitter.com/jervenbolleman/status/537639519399710720

At this rate I think I'm going to have to run some sort of poll for people
to vote on!

Thanks all, further suggestions welcome

Rob
