[geeklog-devel] Time to rebrand 2.x

[Tony Bibbs]

Yep, as long as we don't call it "apt" and market the launch with "apt-get".

> Following the discussion on the challenges with the Geeklog "brand" from a few weeks ago it was pretty much decided not to do anything with 1.x and if we were going to rename things do it for 2.x.  To prevent a bunch of back-and-forth on it some of us GL2 devs have been tossing around ideas on a name and landed on Aptitude.  Surely any name we'd come up with be liked by some, hated by others.  As we prepare for this alpha we are going to go through the process of rebranding everything to use that name.  This has zero impact on 1.x but quite a bit on 2.x (domains, URL's, class name changes, etc).

Hi,

Are you sure you want to call it something that is already well known to Linux people ?
