Subject: [ruby-core:59952] Re: [ruby-trunk - misc #9438] [Open] Implementation naming

A certain amount of streamlining is certainly a good thing, but we 
should be aware that people use both "CRuby" and "MRI", often 
indifferently. We should make sure that people who only understand one 
of them, or who don't understand either, can still follow the documentation.

Regards,   Martin.
