Consistent naming

I see different writing the project name:

  • OPERATON
  • Operaton
    As of my understanding OPERATON is the right name, isn’t it? “Operaton” has the likely chance to be overread as “Operation”.

If so, can we agree that we try to write every occurrence of “Operaton” in capital? Affects sources, the forum (e.g. bot welcome message), and likely some more places.

I know from my other project “Xtext” which is often written as “xText”, “XText” and so on that it is hard to educate people about correct writing. They are miswriting this in project descriptions, even their CVs. We should disambiguate this as early as possible.

I noticed the trademark says “Operaton” (link). Made me wonder: when and how would one actually use OPERATON?

Thanks for this hint, then I guess it is vice versa. The trademark will be leading then. Means all occurrences of nam “OPERATON” should be avoided.

Hi,

thanks for pointing this out, this was an inconsistency in early communication. We should remove the all-uppercase mentions, we will make sure to be more consistent there in the future :pray:

I’ve updated the name in the Keycloak plugin to “Operaton”! :tada:
