Re: Earth shattering news! IBM renames DB2!

Buck Calabro, I have been coding in Go language and attending Gopher

age.

I highly recommend the practice to refresh one's mind!

It seems to me that the reticence to use a new name is part and parcel
of the larger problem that our sisters and brothers don't feel able to

I wish we as a community could come up with something as... motivating
as the Nomenclature Wars (tm) to spur discussion about advancing the
art, mentoring our colleagues, and sharing successes.
