Project names

[mike-pisman]

The unipoll(University Polling) project is build from multiple sub-projects. The sub-projects(project later) can be made of single or multiple applications.

Currently, the unipoll contains two main projects - a back end server application which does all the computation(unipoll/api) and a Web application(unipoll/angular).

The current names of projects and repositories have several issues, for instance the server application provides API, and therefore should not be called so. If at any point there would be a different application created with angular, this could create a confusion. Renaming the web app to something like "Unipoll Web UI" could also create confusion if there would be multiple web ui projects.

For these and other reasons, the projects should have a simple, yet catchy and unique names.

Please use this discussion to provide suggestions for naming convention and/or names for current and future projects.

A possible name for the server application is Psephos

Psephos is a greek word for a stone/pebble used as a ballot for voting in the ancient Greece. The term the Psephology (quantitative analysis of elections and balloting) which draws from the word Psephos.
