Re: Announcement: The birth of Ophal Project

[Ralph Eastwood <tcmreastwood@...>]

Just curious, what was Ophal intended to mean?

It would not be a leap to drop the 'h', and have the name Opal, which would lead to a quite nice looking stone ;).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opal

 

Alternatively, in the spirit of lua web based software, pick something related to astronomy, perhaps a star?

Cheers,

Ralph

You've not read that article. It's full of pictures of delicious and
appetizing dishes.
