spring is the name, not springrts.

Spring is shared by like 5 other software projects. Calling it "Spring" should make it pretty hard to search for too, but luckily Google has us figured out. I'm not sure many other search engines or tagging systems get it though.

Additionally, Spring is an RTS engine. Calling it SpringRTS just makes sense to me.

springrts is a perfectly fine tag, but it's not going to be the name. Especially when Spring isn't an rts...

Spring is an RTS engine. Saying "Spring isn't an RTS" really is splitting hairs.

Not really. We can run other sorts of games on the engine, as demonstrated by numerous projects.

Which is why in all my media I reference this project as 'the spring engine' so as not to confuse it with 'the spring wedding' or 'spring'

you can make an rts on the quake engine and an fps in the spring engine, but quake is a bit different in that it doesn't have a quake web java framework competing for the name :>

So... what is the fate of "Spring" game page? SwiftSpear?

It doesn't really matter, tobi said call it spring, not springrts, not rts spring, not ta spring..

until tobi says otherwise, it is spring.

The Spring Engine!!!

IMO:

Spring = The entire project, in the wide sense
(The) Spring Engine = spring.exe, the C/C++ part
Spring RTS = use this when people still need to google for it or when 'Spring' is already taken

SWiftspear and ILMTitan, if you are going to run the Spring Development Team on moddb, then at least log in and allow for other spring devs to join so we don't have to create a second run around team.
