I, too like it. There's a problem though:

Other similar possibilities include Multiplex, or maybe we get somewhere by
using ManifoldCF? Or maybe Apache Manifold is different enough from
Manifold System to be distinguishable?
FWIW, Multiplex is also

Maybe we should just ask Doug Cutting's kid to come up with a name ;-)
FWIW, we should also think about names that are findable. Omni is likely
to be buried in any search engine

So, there were some other suggestions on the Incubator list. What do
people think of the Open Connector Framework? OCF? (Granted, it is silly
to me given it will be the Apache Open Conn. Framework

Can we agree that something like ContentCF is a possibility under your
guidelines? (I'm not proposing that, I'm just trying to open the field up a
