My updated proposal is: probox2 PROBOX2 (by W2COMP Co., Ltd.) Rationale: Repeating the same name with just different casing on the right does not provide additional information to a reader wondering whom this prefix belongs to and whether to use it for new compatible strings. If that proposal is okay with you, we still need to figure out how to describe your company in the commit message below. > thanks, > Wilson > PROBOX2 > > On Fri, Sep 1, 2017 at 5:14 AM, Rob Herring > wrote: > > On Sun, Aug 27, 2017 at 02:54:23PM +0200, Andreas Färber wrote: > > PROBOX2 is a Hong Kong based manufacturer of TV boxes. W2COMP describes itself as an "online reseller", and PROBOX2 does not have any About Us page to derive a fair description from - "reseller" appears to contradict my above description as "manufacturer". Therefore my (unanswered) off-list inquiry from Aug 28, when you first mentioned W2COMP to me. So what about: "PROBOX2 is a TV box brand by Hong Kong based online reseller W2COMP Company Limited."?
