Is there still time to reconsider the name of the new integrated query module 
(groovy-ginq) before Groovy 4 is released and the choice is locked in?  I ask 
for a couple of reasons:
                1) the "g" is redundant; groovy-ginq implies "groovy groovy 
integrated query".  When gcontracts was moved under apache, it was changed to 
"groovy-contracts", not "groovy-gcontracts".
                2) ginq is very close to an ethnic slur in american english.

I do realize that it was originally groovy-linq.  I asked at that time if that 
was a registered trademark of Microsoft.  I did not hear whether or not it was, 
just suddenly it was groovy-ginq without any further discussion.

So I propose groovy-ginq be renamed to one of the following:
groovy-query
groovy-linq
groovy-inq

Or my proposal to incorporate it into the groovy-sql module could be 
reconsidered.
