I also have a chat plugin https://github.com/zml2008/chatterbox with the same name -- I can understand missing that, but would you mind finding a different name for yours -- wouldn't want people to get confused between the two\r\n\r\nI'm one of the other team members of Chatterbox - @jkcclemens poked me about this last night and I got it when I got online a few minutes ago.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nWhile it does look like your repo is slightly older than ours, please consider the following points.\r\n\r\n* This is a very small repo with 16 commits, no issues, no PRs, and limited docs\r\n    * For comparison, our repo has 169 commits, 15 issues, no PRs, and quite a lot of docs\r\n* We've already spent time building a community and some reputation using this name, as well as working on branding, graphical work, and other things. A few examples include:\r\n    * **#chatterbox** over on Esper\r\n    * https://chatterbox.works (and related hosting, SSL, etc)\r\n    * Branded Discourse forum\r\n    * GitHub org (we were quite annoyed when we found a disused [Chatterbox](https://github.com/Chatterbox) user)\r\n    * [WeTranslate project](https://webtranslateit.com/en/projects/11623-Chatterbox)\r\n* When we were first coming up with the name, we did spend a few hours making sure that it wasn't taken, and this repo didn't come up in our searches. I'm not entirely sure whether the repo was private at that point or whether we came up with the name before that.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nI get it, though. As a programmer, I can say that coming up with a name for a project is one of the most difficult parts of the project. We spent a lot of time on this name, striking off many alternatives, and we've laid groundwork, built foundations and worked around this name, developing quite a lot. In comparison, all I can find for your plugin is this single small repo.\r\n\r\nTherefore, I respectfully ask that you either change your project's name, or risk the conflicts. It doesn't make logical sense for us to rebrand, when it isn't really feasible for us, and would be so much easier for you to do so, given the lack of community-building and infrastructure.\r\n\r\nI've seen you around Esper and I highly respect your status as a developer. However, this looks like a bad timing coincidence, and while neither you nor our team is at fault, it makes a lot more sense to go down the path that involves the least butchery.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nPlease feel free to discuss here, or create a ticket on our repo if you feel that's more appropriate. We would like to come to a resolution, but the one you've provided just doesn't make sense to us."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/zml2008/chatterbox/issues/comments/106974490","html_url":"https://github.com/zml2008/chatterbox/issues/1#issuecomment-106974490","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/zml2008/chatterbox/issues/1","id":106974490,"user":{"login":"zml2008","id":629092,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/629092?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008","html_url":"https://github.com/zml2008","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zml2008/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-05-30T02:05:05Z","updated_at":"2015-05-30T02:05:05Z","body":"nice convo: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/2bea93d6a76db89bdc0c\r\nI'm staying chatterbox. you and your 5 users can deal with that."}}
