[JDEV] jabber names



I'm probably too late (catching up on old mail) but here are some ideas:

I especially like this one:


>From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:

  'Twixt \'Twixt\
       An abbreviation of {Betwixt}, used in poetry, or in
       colloquial language.

and some random bits:

nexus (fun when we hit version 6 (nexus6 in blade runner))
babel (too bad altavista got babelfish)
tob/toby (tower of babel)
rosetta (perfect metaphor)
switchboard
switchbox
liason
middleman
xmissive
