The public release name for Adobe Apollo has been leaked
NOTE: check the date of this post. It’s an April Fools joke. I had no idea this article was so popular until I checked my site stats. My apologizes to anyone I might have misled. Anyhow, I still think it’s pretty funny.
An anonymous source from Adobe has confirmed that they have a final release name for the Apollo project. It’s going to be called Adobe Desktop Presentation Foundation, or Adobe DPF for short.
He said that they wanted to go with a name that was more evocative but since this product competes with Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation they decided to go with a product name that was long and bland.
He also confirmed that a lite version of Apollo will be released for cell phones early next year. It will be called Adobe DPF/e. He said that the ‘e’ doesn’t really stand for anything. It’s just there to confuse people.
If something here has proved valuable to you then feel free to drop a couple of bucks in the tip-jar.
