I don't see any particular reason the repo naming needs to be dictated. Can you clarify?

I think that's an overly rigid policy which has flaws. Next year's TPC in the US will be in Alexandria. How many people will see that and assume Greece? https://goo.gl/mdNdbK <https://goo.gl/mdNdbK> Also, what would you like to call the Perl Conference we'll be having in 2018 in Paris, TX? :P

I'm not clear who besides you has agreed on this. The NA organizers have not agreed on it. In fact we probably have concerns about your plans

As above I do not agree. We're already pressed for time.

Sébastien, I would appreciate it if we moved forward with getting na2017 online so we can proceed with our test development. As I stated before, we're not ready to go live so I don't follow why this discussion needs to block our development.

I notice http://test.mongueurs.net/ <http://test.mongueurs.net/> is down. Is it planned to be up any time soon?

Thanks,
Todd
