As you can read on that page, "Kroupware" is just a title for the current project:

Nice evening

OK, that's good news.

Since I was complaining about the name "puic" a couple of stories ago, I was reluctant to do the same thing again, but am glad others find "kroupware" unappealing.

In English, by the way, "croup" refers to a potentially fatal respiratory disease in babies.

Again, a great project, just like the Perl bindings -- just want to make sure they don't get saddled with a name that frightens users!

learn from GNOME

Hey. KDE should learn from the GNOME project and assign a kick ass name to the project *first*. And when I say *first*, I mean before any code has been written down at all. Seriously. Eliminate these half-assed temporary names! ;-)

First assign a name and then begin creating the project? You mean like "GNOME Office"? :-)

The problem is that when the project fails you have one name less to chose.. and it is always emberassing to donate even more vapourware to the world. But the Gnome have some experience with this as well...
