Re: Ada Components - GRACE Lists

Well, maybe "nobody liked" is a little strong - I thought it was pretty good
and quite servicable. :-)

Ted Dennison seemed to like the moniker "GRACE" and had an acronym worked
out for it. Also in honor of Grace Hopper. Try looking up the old posts on
this subject - lots of names were kicked around.

Me? I'm not married to the name. Assuming this effort moves forward, I could
go with just about anything that consumes five or fewer characters. (I liked
"ACE" - short and leading to lots of card-game spinoff names - but feel free
to suggest ones of your own.)
