Hi, There's been quite a bit of interest and discussion for naming LLVM. So much so that I can't keep up with all the changes and ideas. We're working on getting a Wiki and CMS system running but its likely not to be available for a while. Until then, I'd like to change the rules for name submission: 1. If you have commit access, make the changes yourself. Please don't affect anyone else's entry. 2. If you want to add something to the Name.html page and don't have commit access, please prepare a patch and submit it to me as an attachment off list. I will apply it as quickly as I can. 3. There seem to be some themes for names and we might want to capture some of the llvmdev discussions in separate sections on the page. The two that come to mind are portmanteau and dragons. The portmanteau section could list both the portmanteau names as well as words that could be used in the formation of portmanteau names. The dragon section could go into the mythology of each name. Yes, if you didn't notice, I'm trying to off load some work here. Sorry, but I have a job too :) Reid.

I just couldn't keep up with the manual editing of everyone's comments on the list. Plus, seems the initial creative onslaught has subsided :) But, thanks for asking! :) Reid.> > -- John T. > > Hi, > > > > There's been quite a bit of interest and discussion for naming LLVM.
