I think every decision can be revisited at any time, if the participants of this project feel the need to do so. There is no decision carved in stone and I am pretty surprised you are "disappointed" just because something is discussed again - after all, 2.5 years are a long time. Actually I think revisiting old decisions from time to time is the key for the progress of a project. > Not all Commons components have functional names. If the Sanselan > community wants to use that name then I have no problem with that. I agree, even when I like Commons Image (et al) better. I have not seen Charles speaking up on this matter, I hope he is still around. Anyway it should be the Commons Community and the Sanselan Component. Looking at this: http://bit.ly/tZc8Tf Most people participating on Sanselan are discussing the rename change.
