[Live-demo] Next Version - New Name ?!

[Ricardo Pinho]

Hi Cameron,

I understand that no one was taking credit for GISVM.
Like I said, "to avoid wrong interpretations"!

But if the GISVM name continues to be used on this project it could be difficult in the future to distinguish things...

Yes, I really appreciate that you could remove GISVM name from the next build.
But of course I would appreciate if you could maintain references to GISVM, just like Judite suggested, at the: about, credits, etc.

I really think this is the best way to clear things out, and leave space for Live-Demo project and GISVM to continue further!

Thank you for your understanding!
Cheers,
Ricardo Pinho

Richardo,
I apologise if it was seen that LISAsoft were claiming credit for GISVM. What I was aiming to achieve was a recognition of the GISVM name on your behalf.

However, I'm happy to remove the reference above. (It likely won't take effect until after Xmas as I need to get my password reactivated by someone who is on leave).

By the same logic, I'm guessing you would prefer us to move the wiki http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GISVM_Build to http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Arramagong_Build and update the build docs to reference Arramagong instead of GISVM?
