Dear community,
in the Cocoon whiteboard (a folder in our SVN repository where every
committer can put into any Cocoon related stuff without having to ask)
some of us have started with a rewrite of Cocoon. This rewrite, which
has the working title "Corona", has two main goals:
1. Become the best platform available for RESTful services and
RESTful web applications based on the concept of pipelines.
2. Provide a generic pipeline Java API with SAX
and STaX based default implementations.
Since we would like to make this work available to a broader audience,
we want to start with a series of alpha releases. Unfortunately the name
"Corona" is already used together with software (Eclipse Corona). This
means that we have to find some other name.
So far we came up with "Cocoon Silk" and "Cocoon Fibre". Both names have
been rejected: Silk because Borland has some testing software and
"Fibre" because in German it sounds very much like "Fieber" which
translates to "fever". That isn't a good choice either.
As you can see, the name should be easily pronounceable for people
having many different native languages, shouldn't have bad or irritating
connotations for people coming from different countries/culters and
mustn't be in use together with software.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated!
