Hi Rafael,

Good question! We've seen so many different variants since the name poll that we seem to have almost forgotten on which leg we stand.

Going back on an old post, Don proclaimed the following:

It looks as though about 58% like the name "Open Architecture Community System" (with 3 to 2 liking "OpenACS 4.2" rather than "OACS-pronounced-Oaks 4.2").
So, I guess both the community and the toolkit are abbreviated "OpenACS" (not "OACS").

The full name of the toolkit and the community would be "Open Architecture Community System" - of course, the version number should soon be bumped to 4.6 (woohoo!).
