Alright,
I've tallied up the results and we have the following (with full voting
information below [1]).
Call lines
| call | 13 |
It seems unanimous that remote code block calls should use the #+call:
syntax moving forward.
Data and result names
| (name results) | 3 |
| name | 2 |
| (data results) | 2 |
| (object results) | 1 |
| data | 1 |
| object | 1 |
The Data and result name lines were less straightforward, but I think
the best solution which also seems to be the majority opinion will be to
allow #+name: lines to be used to name results, and in the case of
results of un-named code blocks a #+results: line will be used.
It will also be necessary to allow usage of #+tblname: for as long as
this syntax is used to name tables for Org-mode spreadsheet formulas.
Code block names
| srcname | 5 |
| name | 4 |
| source | 3 |
| src | 1 |
Surprisingly (to me) srcname is the winner here, but luckily I haven't
yet voted, and although I would have though #+source: would have been
the winner I like the simplicity of using #+name: for named code blocks
as well as named data. So I'll vote for #+name: here making it a tie,
and I'll also take tie-breaking powers upon myself giving #+name: the
win.
I hope to put together an implementation of this change soon.
Cheers -- Eric
