[cdt-cloud-dev] Project Rename from "Eclipse CDT.cloud" to "Eclipse CDT Cloud"

Hi all,

I'd like to inform you that the project leads and committers of the CDT.cloud project [1] agreed they would like to rename the project from Eclipse CDT.cloud to Eclipse CDT Cloud.

The reason for this change is that .cloud is a top level domain and thus cdt.cloud implies being a valid URL. Thus, people typing this name into the browser's address bar will be directed to the URL cdt.cloud instead of a search engine looking for this term. As the project wasn't able to buy the domain cdt.cloud due to rather high cost, they would like to remove the . (dot) of the project name, in order to avoid this issue.

Therefore, a restructuring review [2] is in process.

Thanks and best wishes,

Philip
