Considering less is more...

 

nMoar

I'm pretty sure people will use it regardless the name.   Seriously, I used the first two versions (nlite and vlite) even though you spelled 'light' wrong both times.  

 

Maybe you could call it

 

Huge Windows Disk Phixer or HWDP for short, probably be pretty popular with the euro crowd.

may be WinSlime can be a good name for a tool aiming to be The Mask of WinOS ;']

 

 

Since all new OS are based from NT Kernel why not use

NT means New Technology

NxT next and new technology

NgT new generation technology

NxTLite

NgTLite

NTLite

LiteNxT

LiteNT

Since all new OS are based from NT Kernel why not use

 

Sure, all new OS's starting from Windows NT 3.1 in July 1993 ..... (though at the time you didn't actually *need*/*want* to make them "lite", the game was to add to them things you needed).

 

A few years later I had a NT 4.0 with only the help/doc files deleted and slightly optimized on a ZIP 100 disk

ricktendo, nTool looks nice, but it is (probably) widely used. And unprecise, the "tool" part. But it sure looks nice and clean. While nLiteX looks a little messy.

 

MrJinje, dencorso,  sixcentgeorge,

 

gendouhydeist, ooo...we have a winner, and it was so obvious. NTLite... that's it, we're done, thank you for participating. Second favorite is nLiteX.

Why do I like NTLite. First it's similar to nLite, then it's not (too obviously) taken, and NT is self-explanatory, which covers any today's Windows version, as X would do.

+1 for NTLite

+1 to give gendouhydeist a free copy of NTLite!

What's the release window now with the name out of the way? A matter of weeks or months?

I like it as well

Why not just:

 

^wLite

 

w can stand for windows wim-image (wim images are the big point of your tool - or not ?)

+1 for NTLite

You should register (TM or whatever) that fast!

Ok, we have the name, would have been better 9lite or winlite, but whatever. I need the program to get rid out of metro and charm from 8, how long do I need still wait? My fingers are crossed...

Simple...

... until its done ....

Until it's done and perfect like Duke Nukem Forever!

 

 

And on a side-note, there won't be a big 8.1 Update 2, i say thank god, nothing to delay nlite further.

So it still can be anytime (months, years, forever), nothing certain. Ok, I am not wasting more time, do my things without...

LeakHunter, in one of my previous posts in this topic I said 2-3 weeks (that was said on 3rd of August).

I am sorry if I leaded you on to wait, it wasn't my intention, but the completion of the first public version is near, of course.

I may have been off in my calculations for a week, we'll see.

 

petrus, I am aware that the development shouldn't be stretched for too long. Imagine how I felt more than a year ago when it started, and on each bigger obstacle question the entire idea. But of course, I love this, and it will show in the tool.

Good about Update 2, indeed.

 

If you guys knew what details are delaying it, you would slap me. But, I feel that the summary of those details are the key.

And since I see a little bit more hype than I would like, it bears repeating; don't expect too much from the first version, nLite was developed for years.

 

These days starting to work on a website,that means the critical todo list has finally shrinked.
