Oh yes, let's just rename it. After all we have no years of historical need to be consistent with our names. The rename of taxonomy to categories in the UI has worked out excellently for everyone. Especially as someone submitted a contrib. module named categories. That hasn't resulted in any support/forum or documentation issues at all. There is no need to concern anyone with the vast number of forum and documentation posts (or the few bits of marketing material) that reference book module as a way to make a site. Renaming it will result in years of confusion. Which has been a PAIN with taxonomy/category UI. IF it does get renamed, then we get to hunt down _anyone_ who submits or approves a contrib. module named 'book'. It would have been better to write documentation that educated people. -sp

We're hoping to have a replacement for the book module that will be more general for creating a hierarchical site structure. What should such a module be named? Poll here:
http://groups.drupal.org/node/3941
joshk indicated a willingness to be involved in the coding, but we really need feedback on what kind of UI such a module should have: http://groups.drupal.org/drupal-dojo/book-project
Also, a question- any suggestions for how the upgrade/install path should look (at the code level) if the module name changes?
