    (This is not a programming question). I have a bunch of Foo objects, all of which are controlled by a FooManager. What would you name an object that controls a collection of FooManagers? [edit] Foo, FooManager and the manager of FooManagers are all processes in a distributed system. [/edit] [edit] John C is right - this really does belong in the Design forum. I might have actually got more than a couple of useful answers if I'd posted there in the first place. :-D [/edit] Thanks, /ravi

      Right. I second the FooManagerController suggestion then. Although some of the other suggestions are clearly more fun. Why not FooBar? It has a nostalgic ring to it...

          Ummmm... I think the CP community just killed your server... scalability issues, anyone? In any case... nice name choice! Is your K&R also still sitting next to you in a bookshelf? Mine is (next to me, that is). :-)

                                  You have my sympathy and apologies. I suppose we're all suffer from OCD when it comes to naming (there's a quite recent thread on that), so we replied without thinking. Voting you down seems a bit rash harsh, though. I'm innocent (of that, at least)!

                                        Just for the record, I didn't vote you down. (I wouldn't do that without posting an explanation or reply). /ravi

                                        I'm not nearly as mad as the icons would indicate, in fact I had a bit of a grin on my face as I typed that. ;)

                                          (This is not a programming question). I have a bunch of Foo objects, all of which are controlled by a FooManager. What would you name an object that controls a collection of FooManagers? [edit] Foo, FooManager and the manager of FooManagers are all processes in a distributed system. [/edit] [edit] John C is right - this really does belong in the Design forum. I might have actually got more than a couple of useful answers if I'd posted there in the first place. :-D [/edit] Thanks, /ravi

                                          WhyTF did you start with that stupid name in the first place? And just what does 'Foo' mean anyway? You probably dont knmow, and you just use it because you think it makes you look cool because you read it in some crappy SW book written by an American, because, god knows, only an American would ever use it anyway. Fuck I hate computer nerdyness.
