Description Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2017-02-08 13:35:02 EST
The poll is over for the Oxygen+1 name:

The top 3 results are:

1. Pluto  (Condorcet winner: wins contests with all other choices)
2. Photon  loses to Pluto by 137–95
3. Phobos  loses to Pluto by 147–68, loses to Photon by 129–80

Can we move forward with vetting Pluto as the legal name? If that doesn't work, we can move down the list.

Apache might have a problem with us using Pluto. If we feel particularly strongly about that name, we will need to check with them (they recently amicably changed a project that used a name that we claim).

A quick Google search leaves me with hope that the Photon or Phobos might work.

Wayne/Mike, did we move down to Photon then as the name?

Just double checking on the status of things :)

I am happy to announce that the name "Eclipse Photon" has been approved for use as the 2018 simultaneous release name. 

Thanks for everyone who participated in the process!
