RE: [Unity-irc3] Is this really IRC3?

Hahaha :) I go for INSTAGIB!

My bet is SRC, although people tend to think "conferencing" means
something slick and nifty, like Netmeeting (D:) - can't we swap the
conferencing part for something sounding a bit less expensive? :)

I'm not saying that we should abandon the project if we find that the
name "IRC3" doesn't fit. I have a list of other acronyms we could use,
see below.

Cancelling the project just because the original name won't work would
make all the effort we put into designing so far pretty useless.


If we find "IRC3" is bad, why not choose one of these:
* SRC - Scalable Realtime Conferencing (this allows for puns with the
source
        directory ;))
* RIC - Realtime Internet Conferencing (not IRC since that would be too
close)
* RCS, RCP, SCP might work but are too close to existing standards :)
* IRC4 ;)
* INSTAGIB - InterNet Service Targetting All German Idle Bncs
* RLAN - Real Life Alternative Network
