Subject: [tools-pmc] Re: Changing
the name of PHP IDE Project to PDT
Yossi,
I think this is a fine idea. Thinking about potential conflicts, I can imagine
that the Pascal tools might want the same "PDT" name - no, wait, we
don't have any Pascal tools... Let's see: Perl tools? Python tools? ... nope,
we don't have those either and the Dynamic Language Toolkit (DLTK) project is
going to cover them under DLTK. So I think we're completely safe...

Hi
All,
The PHP project was officially called when proposed
to Eclipse.org PDT (PHP Development Tool).
During that time, it was changed to PHP IDE which
doesn’t fully describe the project and also doesn’t follow the
standard of other tools such as CDT and JDT.
I would suggest (after Andi Gutmans was consulting
Mike about it as well) to change the name back to PDT just before we going on
the process of release candidates.
There shouldn’t be too many changes since the
plugins are named as org.eclipse.php.* and also the web site.
Please let me know whether it’s approved so I
can continue with the process.
Thanks,
