Hi. I'm looking for a catchier name for the development branch. Something that has not "devel" in the name. Any ideas?

Progressive Data; Future Data Panic Data Shweet Data D'Oh Data Killer Data L33t Data Manic Data Cruel Data Deluxe Data Concrete Data (as in Musique ...
Or perhaps we could adaopt a strategy like the code names that apple use for OS X: Mathews Data Roads Data Cunningham Data Viola Data (or perhaps those more for GEM) Pythagoras Data Boulez Data Schaeffer Data ...
Hhhhmmm this si fun :)

well ... "stable" is already in use ... "timpd" would remind me of "impd", pd-claws / Xpd would remind me of some projects that forked, something we should try to avoid ...
basically the _name_ is not really important for the development branch ... the way it is used is much more important... currently it's not the main development branch ... i think before thinking about a name, we should think about the future of the development branch...
cheers ... t

It depends on what you do call a "main development branch".
If/when work is done on devel_0_38 quicker than Miller can work on the "HEAD" branch, then who's more main than the other?

Ok, what are your concerns vis-à-vis the development branch ?
I ask this because I'm resuming work on ImpureData right now, and there's not going to be an "impd_0_38" branch. What does it mean to you and everybody else on the devel branch ?

i don't like the idea of spending a lot of time with reinventing wheels ... the console was one example ... you invented one and miller invented one ... also, i'm not supporting the threaded soundfiler any more due to the missing array locking, that i don't want to rewrite for each new instance of stable_ ... basically, i'm waiting until miller introduces some functionality for this until i start working on a clean version again ...

it's cool that you are planning to resume your works on impd ... i hope, you'll work on devel, when working on that ... but i'd suggest, we discuss about the specific issues ... maybe having a devel_ developer meeting on irc ;-)
cheers ... t

By the way, another note:
« The most important thing in a programming language is the name. A language will not succeed without a good name. I have recently invented a very good name and now I am looking for a suitable language. » -- Donald E. Knuth, 1967
But he was still young when he said that. ;-) This was before he wrote "TeX" and "The Art of Computer Programming".
