The name has been through the following variations:
- 2021/05/31: The Software Uprising
- The initials, SU, are evocative of the POSIX
su
command, which is short for "superuser" -- which nicely implies the way we want to elevate the user in importance.
- The initials, SU, are evocative of the POSIX
- 2021/05/18: The Software Rebellion
- I found it was difficult to remember which R-word it was (revolt? revolution?).
- It also sounds a bit too evocative of the January 6 insurrection, Southern "Rebels", and so forth.
- 2021/03/01: The Software Development Society
- 2021/02/10: The Software Development Corps (why?)
- fon suggested that "Corps" is too militaristic; there seemed to be a consensus around that idea, and I tend to agree.
