You may know Garrett from his previous works, "MongoDB is Web-Scale"
and "Node.js is Bad-ass Rockstar Tech".

Take everything in the video with a grain of salt and sense of humor.

I am a newbie to Erlang so pardon if the question comes off as
impertinent. However, as I read more into OTP and see the power it has,
I am more and more irked by its name. The Open Telephony Platform seems
to be a little limited and I wonder if it would put off people trying
to adopt Erlang for other use cases.

I am wondering wouldn't it be better to call it the Open Technology
Platform? The same initials can be used, but the understanding would be
that the platform would be a general purpose library (which it is)
useful for many endeavors, not just writing a phone switch.

Sure it might seem trivial but any marketing guy will tell you, naming
is sometimes everything. So am I nuts here?
