Naming conflict #1

Open Me1000 opened 12 years ago

Howdy!

I author an app BugHub (http://bughubapp.com) and was hoping you would consider renaming this project. I am an independent developer, and without a mammoth marketing budget, Mozilla will most certainly trample over my app in search results (for no other reason that it's a Mozilla project).

As a show of good faith, I'm willing to hand out as many promo codes as requested from @mozilla.org email addressed :)

Thank you

:+1:

it looks completely low risk to rename this repo. You could also fork back to this URL for any stragglers who havent picked up on the new name

It'd be great to allow @me1000 to have the name for his consumer-facing (and open source) project.

Hi guys, sorry for the slow response - I'm the author of this project (and the naming collision is probably my fault; this was pretty much a quick weekend hack to address an urgent internal need and I'm sure I failed to do a search for existing uses of the name) but I no longer work at Mozilla, so there may be a bit of a "whose responsibility is it?" issue here. I still have github access and I'm happy to rename the repo (and rename the naming of modules etc internally?), but I'd like to get the go-ahead from @ctalbert first; if I do the rename, it'll require some updating work on the server this is running on internally too if the code running there is ever updated, and I no longer have access to make those changes on that server. @ctalbert ?
