JSAttend is renamed to EventManager, but I need to rename all the other ones.

Renaming JSTwitter to just Twitter seems wrong somehow. Blogger and Merchant and EventManager are all generic names, whereas Twitter is not only specific, but probably also protected legally.

Wordoid came up with variants that sound very web 2.0 in the most ironic way possible (twittingly, twittorial, twittiness, twittmares), but they're hardly appropriate. Suggestions?

I kept thinking that JSL as a prefix would capture the Jumpstart Lab without being confused with JavaScript. But I love these changes.

The issue with JSL is that it means classes would go in j_s_l_merchant.rb, for example.

j_s_l_merchant.rb

Ouch.

Ok, how about MicroBlogger?

Do we need to rename things in the /source/academy directory tree?

There are references to JSTwitter in source/academy/sessions/20120312.markdown and source/academy/curriculum/resources/Week 2/Day 1/02_01_opensourceplan.markdown

That's a @jcasimir question. I know next to nothing about anything in /source/academy

The stuff in /academy needs a lot of focused revising in December/January. Don't bother with it for now, because it is probably getting reorganized anyway.

That makes sense. In that case, this can be closed when the repositories for Merchant and MicroBlogger have been moved and the pull requests for the name changes have been merged.
