new naming rule Posted May 19, 2006 18:30 UTC (Fri) by JoeBuck (subscriber, #2330) [Link] When naming a new FOSS project, always pick a name for which projectname.org is available. Then we won't have naming conflicts.
new naming rule Posted May 19, 2006 18:36 UTC (Fri) by rfunk (subscriber, #4054) [Link] Good idea. But .org is pretty crowded with other stuff too....Maybe we should petition ICANN for a new .foss TLD. Hey, the museums get a TLD, why not us?

Yes. I remember it. When I read the summary I thought "What does QT have to do with Java?" but this is clearly something different. I guess the other Harmony project is dead.
Harmonizing Posted May 22, 2006 9:43 UTC (Mon) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Given that its raison d'etre was to produce a GPLed Qt implementation because Qt wasn't GPLed, and Qt is now GPLed, it would be a bit of a waste of time to continue with it...
Harmonizing Posted May 22, 2006 15:01 UTC (Mon) by yodermk (subscriber, #3803) [Link] Actually, even after Qt was GPL'd, there were a few that wanted to continue Harmony because they wanted it LGPL.
That movement never got very far AFAIK.
