Standardize Pod name

[JJ]

Let's try and call it Pod 6 everywhere, including the non-breaking space before the 6

[JJ]

Also #1948. Use it in the page that describes it.

From my comment here:

Uh, actually, maybe not yet. At least not without a deep discussion.

Some random thoughts:

The thing is that we will have an alias eventually. Let's say it'll be “AAA”. With current naming of pod, it'll then be “Perl 6 Pod” and “AAA Pod” depending on context. Yes, two different names for the same thing, but that's what we want (sort of).

So if we rename it to “Pod 6”, then I guess it'll stay “Pod 6” in both cases, which is nice… But then, what is “6”?

I guess “pod6” will work nicely with “6lang”, but then why not “6pod”? :)

[AlexDaniel]

But we're using Pod 6 pretty much everywhere else.

Well, maybe that's not right? I don't know.

[JJ]

We kind of have to agree on a name. Pod 6 rhymes nicely with Perl 6. We can't keep calling it Pod or Perl 6 Pod, as in, you know, this thing we use with, you know, this thing. Pod 6 I guess is as good as any other; it's better than POD or Pod, better than Pod6 and better than Perl 6 Pod, which is what was being used so far. We can't just delay naming things until the Perl 6 naming debate is settled, which might be never. And when it's done, it will be the time to reckon... and refactor.

[AlexDaniel]

Well, the point is that maybe we should be calling it “Perl 6 Pod” for now.

[AlexDaniel]

(because that leaves enough room for the upcoming alias)

[JJ]

I'd like to hear more opinions about this. Even if we leave the page title that way, it's kind of cumbersome to say Perl 6 Pod every time you mention it on the documents. We can clarify in the documentation that when we say "Pod 6" we actually mean "Perl 6 Pod" and then change that last thing to whatever, when (or if) that change happens.

[JJ]

This probably should remain open.

[JJ]

So will everyone agree on Perl 6 Pod?

[Kaiepi]

I'm ok with Perl 6 Pod

[JJ]

Should we open this back now? Pod6 or Pod(non-breaking-spce)6?

[AlexDaniel]

This is related, but there I propose some crazy changes.

[AlexDaniel]

Also, I think it is universally POD6 right now and nobody writes it with a nbsp, so there's no point in trying to force that. But as I mentioned, maybe the “pod” part of the name needs to be rethought too.
