Understood and think it's great to think things through thoroughly (gee, that's a lot of t-words, LOL). Ultimately, anything that isn't the full groupId and artifactId could have a conflict. All the Apache Commons libs stuff (math, lang, dbcp, etc) use one groupId but all have different artifacts and versions. In the end we're still making stuff up, so IMO, let's make up a short name that's easy to find with IDE completion. That said, it's a small detail so ultimately anything unique is fine. We change things at any time, so I'm willing to try almost anything for a while and see how it goes. -David
