I'm not asking us to exclude [email protected], just asking to include a 
larger community. As far as I can tell there's less than 20 members on this 
mailing list and most of us work for Microsoft or SAP so it's not a good place 
to get feedback on something as visible as the name of the library. By contrast 
odata.org had 61,000 unique visitors in June. We certainly won't get responses 
from that many people, but I'd hope we can get a voting result that includes 
more than six votes from two companies. That's not a very representative sample.

Hello Mark,

think it is best if discussion took place on [email protected], otherwise 
we have so sync the discussion between mailing list/blog/forum

On http://olingo.apache.org/support.html is information of how to join 
[email protected]. Any interested developer can join.

Regards,
Sven

Thanks Sven! Ideally we should consider getting input from the larger OData 
community. The current Olingo community is mostly composed of members of the 
TC, which I think biases the discussion somewhat. Is there a way to extend the 
call for input to the full OData community? Maybe we could put a blog post up 
on OData.org and send a mail to the main OData DL?

Hi all,

this seems to be a valid point. So I cancelled the vote and we can do further 
discussions on this.

So please free discuss this here. There will be a new Vote on this after the 
discussion.

Hi all,

I would propose that we reconsider using the name OData.JS or ODataJS. OlingoJS 
certainly got majority of the votes but the number of votes is small (only 6 
votes).

This JavaScript client library for OData is the core client library for 
JavaScript mainly developed by sponsors of the TC of OASIS for OData (at least 
this first version), so it qualifies as an official JavaScript library of 
OData. Having OData.JS or ODataJS as its name will vastly increase the 
possibility that users will turn to our library as the first choice when he 
searches on the internet for "OData JavaScript library" and names like 
"OData.js", "Breeze.js", "JayData", etc. show up at the same time. Using 
OlingoJS will likely to cause brand dilution. Apache Olingo as the project name 
is totally respected but having OData as part of the library name would also be 
very beneficial. 

It would be really helpful if people voted on OlingoJS can shed light on your 
reasons for this choice so that we can discuss about it. 

Best,
Yi

Hi, 

for the name the majority is for "OlingoJS".

So we use OlingoJS as name.

Regards,
Sven
