+1 - we talked about this IIRC when [sanselan] was incubating and decided not to force the name change. I think it was to make it easier for then current users and developers to keep engagement / momentum. I think its worth asking again now that it has moved into Commons and repackaging is going to be necessary anyway. Why not just change to o.a.c.image?
