I doubt this is acceptable "as is" but it's a good starting point to talk about all the places the trademarked term "node.js" appears in the repo and what, in all, might need to be changed in order to remove it.

Can we get rid of the "Evented I/O For V8 JavaScript" garbage while we're in there too?

@rvagg that's already gone in the README, where else is it?

Well this looks wrong :)

Do we need to s/nodejs/iojs/g too? Or only remove references to "node.js"? Not really across trademark laws.

@SomeoneWeird are there instances where it makes sense to do this? We should be thorough in this unless it's too yak-shavy.

@mikeal see src/res/node.rc - on current joyent/node it even shows up on the Windows process manager as "Evented I/O for V8 JavaScript" with no mention of "node", we have it fixed here and you're changing it to "io.js: Evented I/O for V8 JavaScript". I don't know what else to call it but anything would be better than that.

this reaches down in to npm to make changes and probably shouldn't

Yeah, I think ./deps should be ignored, doesn't really make a whole lot of sense.

This should be reverted, it checks if the debugged file is src/node.js.

Okay, I'll stop repeating myself. :-) All changes to deps/ and some of the changes to src/ and test/ should be reverted. Run make test-all and undo whatever breaks the build or the test suite.

I'm closing this, it doesn't merge cleanly and is rife with problems.
