Hmmm. A pdax thread on kernel goodies (presumably 2.6) filled with OZ guys (who have 2.6 and likely something to say about it ) discoursing on language and reference. Very entertaining
But no useable 2.6 based Rom for my Tosa yet (sorry, I couldn't resist)

Koen - we all know your opinions... :-)

hrw - i agree - basically the pdaXrom word was choosen a long time ago and we kinda like it - it would be weird with pdaX or pdaXdistro.

Some day we might change our name but right now we are more focused on fixing things that what we should call our distro/rom/software blah.

Yes - if the worst thing pdaXrom's detractors can find to complain about is its name, then it can't be doing badly at all!

ROM = operating system might be rather quaint, but its meaning is pretty obvious to me.  I'm a pretty good pedant myself but occasionally I like to listen to an expert.

All it needs is more people testing & patching, etc. RP has done most/almost all of the work and he had a c7x0 machine therefore the support for this is the best.

Yes, a bit random isn't it . If you do have questions about 2.6.x then I'm sure we'll be happy to answer them, I'm all for cross-pollination.

I would like it if we all changed to using something a little more correct but I don't know what (if for no other reasons than that it will make it easier for newbies to understand, plus I'd like to keep using English properly .

Using standard, and presumably correct, terminology and phraseology is one sure way of enabling all to understand exactly what is being referenced and/or discussed.  Although someone new to, and presumably unfamiliar with, the subject matter may not initially fully comprehend, they are enabled to search and learn quickly and accurately using the standard terminology.  Use of standard and correct terminology also goes a long way toward avoiding confusion when interactively seeking help from others such as via IRC, e-mail, or even forums such as these.

As much as I wish we would all use correct standard terminology, phraseology and nomenclature in all our technical discussions, I don't believe for even a moment that we will.

And now, we return you to our regularly-scheduled program, already in progress....

I really should have posted this elsewhere, but I spend all my time in the pdaXrom forum, and that's where I concentrate my efforts.  As for how I feel about this getting so far off topic?  Well, I feel badly, but not too bad
