| fungi | kopecmartin: tosky: just a heads up, i've proposed https://review.opendev.org/808479 to rename git repos from osf/* to openinfra/* and there's a followup at https://review.opendev.org/808480 to adjust our image builds and operational document for refstack accordingly, but let me know if that's going to be a problem | 22:05 |
|---|---|---|
| tosky | fungi: I guess there will be a redirect in place as usual if someone clones the old location, to allow for a smoother migration? | 22:06 |
| tosky | (not really important, but why openinfra and not oif? :D) | 22:06 |
| fungi | tosky: yep, urls and cloning from the old name will still work | 22:07 |
| fungi | tosky: we were asked very quickly after the foundation name change by one of the several longstanding organizations which also goes by "oif" not to use that as a reference to the name of the foundation | 22:08 |
| fungi | so you'll never see "oif" used in any official communications | 22:09 |
| fungi | instead we've mostly used "openinfra" instead as a short name for "open infrastructure foundation" | 22:09 |
| tosky | oh, oki | 22:11 |
| tosky | three letters acronyms are complicate | 22:12 |
| fungi | to be honest i don't recall whether it was the optical internetworking forum, osteogenesis imperfecta foundation, organisation internationale de la francophonie, or someone else who was acting possessive of the acronym | 22:12 |
| fungi | suffice to say we were informed it would be a bad idea from a legal standpoint to try to go by "oif" in any official capacity | 22:13 |
| fungi | even when we were going by "osf" it apparently ruffled the feathers of the open society foundations | 22:14 |
