Recode Codename

[Kage]

So, right now, we're in the process of recoding recode (I know, I know..). Ideally, we're looking at the following technologies:

• G-WAN - C servlets
• NodeJS - V8 Server-Side JavaScript
• MongoDB - Document-style NoSQL data store

First of all, we need developers. Contact us in #comdev on the HTS IRC if you have serious experience with V8 JS (NodeJS in particular) and C (most especially G-WAN servlets).

Secondly, we need a codename. I'm thinking something akin to "resurrection." "Anastasis" sounds kinda cool, but I'm looking for that wow-factor. Any ideas?

How about "Phlegethon", "Acheron", or "Cocytus", the three rivers Styx? These rivers were the passage out of the underworld, and being submersed in them granted invulnerability (This is how Achillies became invulnerable)

How about codename: Resurgence

Interesting.. I like the sound of Acheron or Charon (the ferryman).

How about codename: Resurgence

Sounds too much like Call of Duty.


Still welcoming more suggestions.

Kharon maby? Kharon is a different spelling of Charon, that looks a little cooler.

Another word that comes to mind is Ragnarok. In Norse mythology, Ragnarok ends with the world being flooded, and a handful of people repopulate the world. However, most people incorrectly believe Ragnarok to be the apocalypse, which may give the recode a bad light.

Magdalene - Mary Magdalene was supposedly the first person to witness Jesus' resurrection.

Samsara - Sanskrit for the Buddhist concept of continual change and rebirth.

Can't think of any more at the moment...

Kharon, maybe, but it misses the "Ch" prefix that gives that sound. "Kh" almost gives it a "Karen" sound.

Ragnarok is way too played out.

Ooh, nice idea.


Keep 'em coming. We're also still looking for developers with serious experience in C and Node JS. irc.hackthissite.org #comdev

I thought they were pronounced the same, but I might be wrong.

Ragnarok wasn't the best idea I've had.

I'm feelin Samsara.

How about Phoenix for the theme of rebirth. Mythological creature that can revive/be reborn from its own ashes into a more glorious one, represents renewal & immortality and probably many other things I don't know.

Can't thing of anything else right now.

EDIT: On second thought....
