Folks,

In clarifying the organization of things for the website refresh we  
have fallen squarely into the realm of naming.  The descriptions below  
are pithy at best, but I'm focusing on the Fluid xxxx names and am  
wondering if anyone has feedback on the naming:

Fluid -- the community
PRODUCTS:
	Fluid Infusion -- the bundle of code goodness
	Fluid Design Handbook -- the bundle of design how-tos and guidelines
	Fluid OSDPL -- the design pattern library
	VU Lab -- the virtual usability app

PROJECTS:
principle investigator
	Fluid Project -- the 2007-2009 effort that focused largely on web  
apps in higher-ed
	Fluid Engage -- the project we hope to start in April largely focused  
on the various means of distribution used by museums and cultural  
institutions
	Decapod -- the digitization project with DFKI

The Fluid xxxx names are the ones I'm focusing on here.  Do these fit  
others' sense of how we should represent our projects and our products?

I will send along more website info architecture as soon as we have a  
little something to show.  Getting settled on the naming will help.

Best,
Jess
