    Icon5 Change The Name Of This Forum?

    Ok so WordPress MU is defunct. Should I rename this particular forum to WordPress Multisite? If not, what should I call it because WordPress MU is not accurate anymore.

    Keep is MU for now, since people might come to the forum for MU issues.
    Multisite once the stable release is out.

    I vote we still keep calling it WPMU anyway...

    Seems like a good idea to wait another month or so and see. If there end up being drastic differences between MU and Muitisite when 3.0 comes out, it might be worthwhile to keep WPMU around to avoid confusion. If they end up being virtually identical, renaming the forum would be more appropriate.

    From what I've seen in 3.0 alpha, Multisite looks pretty similar, but then again, I never did all that much with MU.

    Call it 'Wordpress MU/MultiSite'

    Best of both.

    Yeah, the only drastic differences is in the name. Just tack Multisite onto the forum name, because it will still take people eons to get around to upgrading.

    There are people out there on MU 2.7 still...

    Ok, I think that's the best course of action, just add MultiSite to the name.
