Package renaming #16

Closed rfairley closed 5 years ago

rfairley commented 5 years ago

metrics can be confused with other projects that deal with metrics. For now, the package just needs a quick name to be included in an initial FCOS release, which is descriptive enough and doesn't conflict with other projects.

For now, a descriptive name which doesn't conflate the metrics topic would be enough.

Some suggestions from chat with @jlebon, @lucab, @bgilbert :

fedora-coreos-usage-ping
fedora-coreos-telemeter
fedora-coreos-usage-client
fedora-coreos-usage-stats
fedora-coreos-pinger

Edit: as @lucab noted in chat, GitLab has a feature called usage-ping https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/admin_area/settings/usage_statistics.html#usage-ping-core-only which is also an opt-out feature (which may be recognizable as to what this package does).

fedora-coreos-usage-ping
fedora-coreos-usage-client
fedora-coreos-pinger

I'd be good with any of these (as a conflict with https://github.com/openshift/telemeter was noted in chat).

Overall preference in chat was for

fedora-coreos-usage-client
fedora-coreos-pinger
bgilbert commented 5 years ago

Of those, I'd prefer fedora-coreos-pinger.

jlebon commented 5 years ago
fedora-coreos-usage-client
fedora-coreos-pinger

Good with either of those on my side. Seems like pinger is already something, though whatever we choose I don't think getting good SEO for fedora coreos pinger would be very hard. I like that the ping bit makes it more obvious that we transmit data over the network.

fedora-coreos-pinger looks to be the preference - will plan to go ahead with the renaming to this by end of the week (on Friday).
