What best name for Small PCLinuxOS Openbox ?
« on: November 07, 2010, 09:06:08 AM »
Hi,

It's not fit to name this version "Mini" because unlike Zen Mini, Lxde Mini and so one it has no proprietary drivers and firmware, and is not meant to be used as is.

It's aim is to provide a small base iso, but very easy to handle, to start whatever specialised version you want. This is the main goal, even if it is also fit for old machines (ie : gseaman with his 128 mb machine... )

The latest iso, which I am about to upload, is 261 MB.

Openbox Base is the actual name. It may describe better what it is, but it also may not sound so nice. Openbox Mini is not fit. Maybe Openbox Minibase ?

What name would you suggest  ?  

Thanks,
Mélodie

How about OpenBox Elements or OpenBox Elemental.

Openbox Platform edition?

Openbox Core?

Openbox Skeleton? :D

Openbox basic?

adding to Just19's ideas above:

Openbox MicroMe?
Openbox Tiny Me ?

*edit* wow, for some reason, the automatic forum censor thinks that if I push the two words posted above "Tiny" and "Me" together, that it somehow makes a cussword, and it blanks it out with stars, what the heck?  :D

Hi,

I think I like Openbox Basic. It is original and sounds nicer that just base. If you have other ideas, they are all welcome ! \o/ !

Well, a few more people have worked a lot on the improvements, start with Jeff, immediatly following Gseaman and Just19, and nixer, and grosbedos and several others. It really ought to get also something such as what Smurflover does for his small one : Community Edition. My only fear is that it would make it a very long name ?

Lets give it a try to see how it looks:

PCLinuxOS Openbox Basic Community Edition

How is that ?
