Open Source RPG ?

[Neil Palmer <neilpalmer400mr@xxxxxxxx>]

At COMMON the idea of renaming RPG was floating
around, and there was also a suggestion that IBM
should open source it.  A short poll:


1) Would you be in favor of IBM Open Sourcing RPG ?
    (give reasons why or why not if you want)


2) If IBM were to Open Source RPG I think a rename of
the language would be inevitable (I can't see the Open
Source community embracing "Report Program
Generator").  So what name would you give it?

Something cool & catchy presumably, as I don't think
IBM's normal naming policy (come up with the most
bland, dull, boring & unimaginative name possible)
would fly.  :-)
