... "CS Office Data Access Layer" ...
Although part of the name is "Data Access", this proposal is a layer
that will interface to EPICS (V3 and V4), TINE, TANGO, ACD, and
DOOOCS and is not the same as dataAccess.
Right, it's not the same, but since it's only in its beginnings,
there's a good chance that the V4 method of describing data
turns into the "CS office" API for describing data.
"Data Access" is a term widely used within a number of places and in a
number of protocols. (So at least it's not a bad name, for sure.) Andrew
was pointing this out a few months ago and suggested that we talk about
"EPICS Data Access" to have a unique name.
Now we actually do have a name clash, as "EPICS Data Access" is
obviously not the same as "EPICS Office Data Access". I have no idea if
that was intentional or by mistake, and I am not too happy with the
situation - as long as we can choose names we really should avoid
introducing ambiguities within our own stuff.
[Frankly, I also don't like the name "EPICS Office" too much, either. It
doesn't really fit the case and is misleading as well in its primary as
in its connotative meanings. Sounds too much Microsoftish - but that's
probably an issue of personal taste. Never mind.]
