BrandonName?
Our GUI needs a name. My only idea is iNsane. We could all the letters in a smooth light grey font like for apple products and the N Orange and stylized.

ToddRe:Name?
Here's some of my ideas for names: -Epsilon -Titan -Auriga (almost like "Amiga")

BrandonRe:Name?
Titan is ok, we need something that sounds powerful, and could have a cool logo. My vote: Bison. The are big and look like power to me. [img size=]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/35/Bison_-_Alberta%2C_1971.jpg/120px-Bison_-_Alberta%2C_1971.jpg[/img]

ToddRe:Name?
Bison sounds good too. I like Titan since it's the only moon of Saturn that's close to Earth.

ToddRe:Name?
The only thing is that "Buffalo" sounds too generic. I like names that aren't used as often but still sound pretty neat when you see it or hear it.

BrandonRe:Name?
Buffalo, isn't a proper name for anything anyways. We need something with an Object. Buffalo is just another (less specific) word for Bison. I need to stop giving people all my cool names!!! I thought I gave Jason buffalo not bison! I'll look some more. How about: Wisent or Gaur?

BrandonRe:Name?
Any objections to Wisent? Speak now or forever hold your peace.

ToddRe:Name?
What's "Wisent"? I codenamed the GUI/SDK part Titan so that's what it says in the source.

Buffalo isn't heard much in Australia or Belgium. ;)

BrandonRe:Name?
A Wisent is a European Bison. Its basically a bison with a little shorter hair. I don't know about Titan, no one whats what Wisent is so it would mean 1 thing and thats our GUI. If I ask someone bout Titian they'll say, "Oh I didn't see the game." And Wisent is Wise-nt We could have a cool Wisent with a wizard hat for a mascot. For Titan a moon logo? cool man :P and maybe a steel gaint as a mascot? ok(so titan is a program to make super robots?) EDIT: We do have to name multiple parts: 1 The Master Distro 2 The Package Management System 3 The Library My vote: 1.Wisent,2.Wisget,3.Titan Hows that?

ToddRe:Name?

The Titans are a football team!

ToddRe:Name?
Notice it was "Titan" not "Titan[u][b]s[/b][/u]"! And who cares? I was going for Titan, one of Saturn's moons.

SonicBritRe:Name?
Adding Elements at the beginning seems to be popular. FireBison, WaterBison, WindBison, ThunderBison, EarthBison (somewhat redundant though) FireTitan(s), WaterTitan(s), WindTitan(s), ThunderTitan(s), EarthTitan(s) Etc...
2008-10-143:17 PM

BrandonRe:Name?
So Todd, you don't like the compromise: 1 The Master Distro: Wisent 2 The Package Management System: Wisget 3 The Library: Titan? We need to agree, and we need names for all three parts.
2008-10-143:58 PM

ToddRe:Name?
No I like Wisent for the name and Titan for the GUI. I don't have a problem with it, I was just arguing with you over why I wanted to call the library Titan. I thought you wanted to call everything Wisent. ;)
2008-10-144:25 PM

BrandonRe:Name?
nope, your making the library, you should name it!

ksrRe:Name?
How are you pronouncing Wisent? (I've never come across the term before) According to Wikipedia it's pronounced vee-zent, but then how would you pronounce Wisget? veezget?
2008-10-145:28 PM

BrandonRe:Name?
Lol, I have been pronouncing it wise-ent.And wisget: wiz-get
