Re: [viatra-dev] Can we update project name to 'VIATRA'? 
Hi,

after some research (and that the plan got no opposition), I have started the renaming process. The following bug tracks the process: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=432542

Some things that are clear now:
 * We are allowed to do the project, if
   * The legal team can do a legal review for the project name (but I have no information, how long this will take; the problem is tracked in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=432545) 
   * And we do a Restructuring review (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/Restructuring_Reviews)
 * We will be allowed to use the 'org.eclipse.viatra2' namespace for the project, so we need not to touch the VPM-based viatra components for this review; but will be able to use the 'org.eclipse.viatra' for the newer, EMF-based versions.

Cheers,
Zoli
