"bridge" might be a better term to use, since it seems more positive than "gap". "DeviceBridge"? I'm a terrible namer. However, when I'm naming, I often look up terms in a thesaurus to see if there are "interesting" alternatives to things, which by itself seems a little helpful. Here goes: gap - http://thesaurus.com/browse/gap bridge - http://thesaurus.com/browse/bridge device - http://thesaurus.com/browse/device > come up with a new project name > ------------------------------- > > Key: CB-11 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11 > Project: Apache Callback > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Patrick Mueller > > During the transition of the PhoneGap project to Apache, the project was renamed to "Callback", due to some concerns with the name "PhoneGap". It seems that "Callback" isn't a great name either - it's a commonly used term, and so internet searches of "Callback" bring up too many non-relevant hits. > Got something better? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
