Please don't name it Fuse. Yes, it's a good name, but there is already a rather well known project with that name, plus it's a common household item. You make it unnecessary hard to be found and not con-fuse-d (hah!) by users.
I speak from experience: I often have to look up errors/bugs related to root. Root as in "CERN analysis software", not the user. One of the most annoying names ever. (In that sense it's rather fitting)
- endlessvoid94 11y agoAgreed. I read the title and thought there was some cool new FUSE C# library.
- seany 11y agoCorona Labs ( A cross platform sdk ) merged with Fuse Powered in Nov 2014. Just to make this even more confusing.
- CmonDev 11y agoThat's not the worst case, how about this: https://www.terraform.io https://www.terraform.io No relation to making planets habitable whatsoever.
- hbbio 11y agoExactly. While reading the title, I thought... what a good idea. But what I had in mind, was to use FUSE (Filesystem in USEr space) to locally mount a webservice/API and then use C# native GUIs to do the presentation :)
- olavgg 11y agoThat was what I read first too.
- PopeOfNope 11y agoThat's interesting, but I'm not sure what FUSE gets you, except maybe not having to fiddle around with streaming the bytecode yourself? I do like the idea of having a compiled bytecode hosted on a server, streaming that to a local C# VM (.NET?) then having the native GUIs do the presentation. :)
- kej 11y agoIt's interesting that FUSE (the file system library) has a FAQ entry about why they chose the name when there was already a ZX Spectrum emulator named Fuse. Apparently it's name collisions all the way down.
