Terminology: the directory

[rho]

More musing about terminology and nomenclature, this time: the directory.

I think the directory is a silly name, and a quick straw-poll of IRC agreed with me. Not quite sure what we should rename it to though. Ideas mooted on IRC were:

search
advanced search
user search
advanced user search
journal search
advanced journal search

Any thought and preferences or better ideas?

but um, isn't (whatever)search that which you do to That Which Currently Cannot Be Named? Which is (I'm taking a wild guess here) the list of all journals, users, and comms on DW? I mean, call it the Rolodex of Adrian Messenger if you like, it's a compendium of information, not a search, isn't it?

Or have I been up too long?

Well, you're searching that list by certain criteria.

Yeahbut... the search is still what you're *doing* to the *thing* isn't it? Even if the search permits, say, Boolean architecture.
