Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Project name ...

Posted by Don Baccus on
The nit-picky problem with OCS or OpenCS is that while our architecture and our own code is open, we support non-open components in that architecture, i.e. Oracle.  Maybe that's too nitpicky, I don't know.

Plus ... "ACS" does carry at least some recognition and I'm thinking we might as well take advantage now that there's no danger of confusion.

My sources tell me the purchaser will be scrapping ACS Java and since ACS Tcl was previously scrapped I'm assuming that means the ACS goes away in their eyes.  I could be wrong.  Even if they keep it I'd expect them to rebrand it, but again could be wrong.

I don't know about aduni but that's a good question.
