Well, actually, I'd like to do that, though I think there's a different
confusion caused by having things named differently inside Linden Lab
and outside. Personally, I'd love us to change the name to "trunk" both
internally and externally. We may have an opportunity to do exactly
that as the result of a code shuffling exercise that Sardonyx is working
on now. If none of the other Lindens chime in here, I'll ping some
folks at Linden Lab.

p.s. there's an office hour starting now dealing with documentation:

We've been talking about documentation on the wiki, and I'm thinking of
crashing the meeting.
