The editor requested renaming the spec for something friendlier to non-English speakers. Group generally agreed.

Please bikeshed.

I don't necessarily WANT to change... but I think this has been a recurring "issue" for a lot of people. If now is a better time to have this discussion, I think we could have it.
Suggestions: webpubsub, pushhook, httphook.

Or just "PubSub"

"PubSub" is good for me if you (w3c) don't think the naming conflict with XEP60 (XMPP), redis and others is ok.

What about WebPubSub? To keep the same pattern as Webmention or WebFinger...

Oh, just saw that @julien51 already proposed this... So my +1 one for Webpubsub :)

I think its good to keep a recognizable name for those who have already used pubsubhubbub , so I think "pubsub" is good in that sense.

-1 to "WebPubSub": I don't think "WebPubSub" better enough than "PubSubHubbub" to justify confusion that would ensue with renaming it.

I'm pretty much neutral on "PubSub". It is at least short, but isn't super distinctive.
