Rename ADB to PADB (prounounced pad-b) #495
Comments
So how is this improving on anything, in fact PADB seems even worse to me. And is the aim not to break the association to (Project) Atomic? |
The aim is to stop the use of "ADB" because it details conversations and to also not break the association with Atomic. |
So how is ADB really related to Atomic? |
Alternately, you could call it "CDK Origin" ;-) |
Actually, this is not the worst I have heard. Beats PADB by miles. |

This issue and the email that is being sent to container tools about it is the result of four talks and lots of hallway conversations I have had about the ADB. Many audience members seem to "short circuit" because the name is already in use by the Android Debug Bridge and the Asian Development Bank[0]. This short-circuit prevents meaningful conversations and instead turns deep rabbit holes about names being hard.
I was discussing this with @veillard and he suggested we just tack on a 'P' to the front for "Project Atomic." We riffed on this a bit and seemed to like it.
The formal proposal is to rename this sub-project to "Project Atomic Developer Bundle" to be pronounced as two words, "pad bee" (pad-b).
This change seems minimally invasive and would allow us to move conversations past the existing name colliding projects.
