OK, as of request, we're going to do the 2nd round of the PHP naming voting booth
here's a list of available options:
(1) .thought
(2) thought
(3) partyfish
(4) AquaTox
(5) ToxAqua
(6) Yeti

These are all I could find in my logs on the fly. If there were some that I've missed out, please add them
(note: only names that were mentioned before the last "poll", e.g. in IRC)
[addsig]

Damn, I missed most of the naming discussion because I had to set up SourceMage on my other hd...this rebuilds take up _days_
I'm not even done yet, still in console (lynx rocks).

So, I'd prefer .thought, would also agree with thought. But before using any of the other names we should keep sasquatch. Just my opinion, though, because I would have problems with working on something called "partyfish" (though I liked the Dopefish very much)

I hope I'll be 100% back tomorrow, maybe even later today. [addsig]

AquaTox
YAH
YAH
YAH

Yeti... or thought

I'm still with "AquaTox" and "partyfish".
btw, explained all this to fabs too. He said that the name change is ok

nice to hear from fabs again. Heard he does not have a connection right now. Does anybody know when he'll be back? [addsig]

He said he'd get DSL in a couple of weeks.

KaGez: didn't he say what name he favored?

I'd still go with Sasquatch or partyfish.

Kagez and I thought of some sweet names, AquaTox we were goin to get apic of Tux, add some scuba gear, and a Toxic logo, would take a bit, but could be done.
Or something like .Toxic has a nice ring, kagez's idea also.

I mentioned .Toxic? never :/
anyways, about fabs:
he agreed with the name change, and he'll be back in 12 days. That's what he told me yesterday. He will get DSL, and hopefully join us in workin on this PHP engine again.
[addsig]

With other words, he didn't mention what name he liked the most?

"Haven't you got a kingdom to run?" - WarCraft II

Peter:
no he still didn't. But I hope he will take a look at this posts, since I've told him about it.

AquaTox - 2
thought - 1
Yeti - 1
Sasquatch - 1
Partyfish - 2

These are the current results... we will still leave it as it is, and wait another 2 days. If nobody else voted, we will choose between AquaTox or Partyfish. If somebody still votes, we will do another vote between those 2 with the highest count of votes.
[addsig]

Sorry, Kagez suggested Toxic, which is sweet name, i added a dot, just use to all this .NET rip offs
(-:
But I think rippin off Tux is a sweeter thing, not as many ppl have done that.

From sasquatch to partyfish or AquaTox is rather a devolution rather than an evolution in my op...

Damn, democracy lollipops, where's my favourite benevolent dictator? [addsig]

here!

Thank god, it's a fvsara [addsig]

ok, I'm sick of this now.
If you don't wanna change anything, why the heck do you listen to me at all, and even follow me up to this point? If you don't wanna change anything in the YPN, then let it all be like this, but without me.
Is there any interest in changin _anything_ in the YPN anyways in here? I can't see the smallest sence of that. OK, maybe moxx tries to change something too, but the rest.... just sitting in here and waiting for others to do something? nobody will be able to change anything alone, but if nobody tries it at all, nothing will ever change at all.
You see, there are tons of people who create a account on the YPN, but they just create it and never come back. Don't you think this is disapointing? Don't you think this is embrassing? I mean, about 500 users, and 20 of them active.... there is _something_ wrong in here.... maybe all OPs should go and think about what is wrong...
IMHO the YPN has a huge lack of usability. That's the part I am trying to fix in this new PHP engine. But, why should I work on this usability issue alone if nobody of the admins cares at all? isn't it just useless work and a huge waste of time what I am doing?
I mean, it can't be true that nobody hardly tires to change something about this. If you are trying something, show some ideas and creativity, and also some effort. Nobody except moxx and me puts effort into the YPN atm imho. Are you all afraid to change seomthing or what is the matter?
I'd really appreciate some feedback on this....

Edit:
Sorry, forgot to mention that sacah is also one of the very few guys putting effort into the YPN. Sorry sacah

I hope that our planned mailing action will erase most of these inactive accounts. [addsig]

that will solve a big problem, but still not all. I hope that it will be a success too tho
[addsig]

Um, yes, we will get rid of the incative accounts, but shouldnt we think for a second why these ppl bothered to sign up in the first place, then never came back???
Thats what Kagez was tring to say.

AquaTox
or
GTBOYPNCDOANFTNPHPE (Gods To Be Of Young Programmers Network Couldnt Decide On A Name For The New PHP (PHP is debatable in its meaning) Engine.)

I must say I would love to help code, but my cvs is broke as you know, and after the months it took for me to get it running last time, I just dont have time to do that again.
Sorry.
Im startin to gothrough Programmers MidLife Crisis too, that dont help.
(-:

[addsig]

sacah@sacah.net tell him to tell me please
(-:
