I agree with what Alex said. I came to Moose originally just because I
knew it had Roassal, Glamour & Magritte working together in the
same image. I later discovered FAMIX stuff kind-of related to what I
was doing, but I was unable to work out how to use it for my needs and
had plenty else to focus on for my dissertation. I think you do not
_need_ to change the name. If you want to reposition your marketing of
Moose to push that Moose now does more than before, you just need to
update the home page, where currently "humane assessment" takes prime
spot. Humane Assessment has its own very nice web site so perhaps a
smaller presence linking to that would be acceptable.
To reposition Moose, you could make things more explicit by splitting
"Moose is a platform for software and data analysis" into...
* Moose is for modeling
* Moose is for data visualization
* Moose is for software re-engineering
or some other combination of three-things taking up the predominant
space on the web page.
However if you wanted to align more with Pharo, then PharoModelling
seems reasonable.

Hi Alex,
I think by Moose you mean FAMIX :). But, Moose is no longer
FAMIX. FAMIX is there only for convenience for some use cases.
Moose is now the engines. This is what makes the platform with
which we reinvent programming. I said a year ago that Moose will become
the IDE. And we are almost there. We still need a couple of extra tools
like a Coder, but we can already affect development significantly with
the debugger, inspector and playground.
If you want, Moose is the engine with which humane assessment
becomes a reality :).
Actually, if you just want an image with just the engines, you
can get it in the gtoolkit image:
