Suggestion: name change of reference framework #19

Closed alansaid closed 9 years ago

Not a coding-related issue..

Reference-framework is a really bad name for a project. No matter how much we discuss/publish about it it's going to remain "ungoogleable".

As I already wrote per email, I suggest the name to be changed. We can circulate a doc with potential names or similar.

I agree, let's start with some proposals, not very appealing but at least something to open the discussion:

I would rather try to get inspiration from names such as Mahout, Okapi, Test.fm, etc.

Unless we can create a nice acronym out of the longer description.

I'm thinking in the direction of tools used for organizing things, like the baton of an orchestra conductor or something like that.

Preferrably the work should be similar to something, e.g. conductor, but spelled in such a way that we get a high pagerank (think giraph vs giraffe), think cowboy, gaucho, granger (like e.g. mahout). The name should, if possible reflect what the project does.

Hi,

More suggestions: CompaRec, RecEval, RecClever but I also liked CrowdRF and VirtuRec or how about RICHeS?

  • domador (lion tamer)
  • conduco (conductor in latin)
