I see a missed opportunity of calling this s3th3rpad :P

More seriously, can we call it "etherpad-s3" instead, or "etherpad-backup-s3"? I would like to avoid ending up with n projects all with the same "s3" prefix.

+1, seems good

Call it whatever works best for y'all. deploymentpreps3 is a similar project that I am currently a maintainer of. It feels likely that s3 will become a common prefix or suffix unless people are steered towards a different prefix/suffix like "objects" or "storage".

I will say that putting hyphens in the project name makes my brain hurt, but mostly because I still think of the project name as the primary key and I know that the S3 gateway we use does not allow hyphens in names.

etherpads3 without the hyphen is also fine, but I personally find etherpad-s3 easier to read. I thought we fixed all the issues with having hyphens in the project name... What is the "S3 gateway" you mentioned?

@komla is now on clinic duty and will take care of the project creation once we settle on a name. @komla ping me if there are some parts of the process that require any permissions you don't have.

Yes, no punctuation in project names please!

@fnegri Noted. I successfully created projects in the past so I don't expect any missing permissions.

Can I go with etherpads3?
