There is no requirement for the category name to match the top-level
project name. Further, there is no requirement to categorize
components under a top-level project-specific category.
If a different name makes sense, start a discussion on
cross-project-issues-dev and just change it.
Even better.... if the components fit better under another category,
put them there.
FWIW, I have an action item with the planning council to suggest new
categorization for Mars.
My work in progress is here:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/SimRel/Feature_Categories
Note that I'm getting some reasonable push-back on my line of
thinking regarding feature names.

Is there a possibility that this name change will be
complete before the Mars release? If so, we should probably
also change the category name for installable plugins from
"SOA Development" to "BPM Development" in time for Mars.

This
is--strictly speaking--a change in the project charter, so
we'll need board approval.
Mike, will this require a presentation of some kind for the
board?
If the PMC can provide me with a concise description of why
we're making this change (e.g. a single paragraph), I can use
that for the restructuring review. We'll need to get board
approval before we run the review.
What changes?
* Bugzilla Classification
* Project ids in the database and in IPZilla (e.g.
soa.stardust becomes bpm.stardust).
I think that's it. All SOA projects, AFAIK, use the flat
project layout, so downloads, builds, source repositories,
etc. shouldn't be affected. Am I missing anything important?
You'll need to socialize this with projects. The impact will
be minor, but they should still know what's happening.
I'll open some bugs to track this (so nothing falls between
the cracks). Any objection?

I am fine
with this name. I guess the next step is to work with Wayne
on officially changing the name.
Mike,
Correct. We
made a couple of suggestions before suggesting BPM.
And the suggested name now would be
Business
Process Management Top Level Project

We discussed the subject in our
SOA PMC call again and would really like to pursue
the rebranding to BPM Top Level Project as discussed
a while ago. We feel that BPM still expresses best
what we do and also think the term is more
sustainable than SOA.
Marc,
As I recall the previous conversation we got hung up
on the specific name you proposed. What *exactly* is
the name you are proposing for the project?
e.g. Is it "Business Process Modeling", or "Business
Process Modeling Platform" or "BPM"?
