== Overview ==
A GVCS machine is part of the [[Global Village Construction Set]]. Examples are [[CEB Press]] or [[Tractor]]. Machines are composed of modules, and sometimes even incorporate other machines. For example, the [[Tractor]] includes one or more [[Power Cube]].

''TODO: replace this section by naming conventions when done''

=== General points ===
* We need consistent names for the machines over all databases and communication channels.
* Proposal: Introduce a fixed numbers for each machine (e.g. "GVCS Machine #001: CEB Press") which allows identification when the name changes. This seems to happen a lot during development (e.g. LifeTrac, The Liberator).

===Details (UPPERCASE is name from GoogleDocs, MixedCase from OSE website)===
* IRONWORKER vs. Ironworker Machine
* CNC TORCH TABLE vs. CNC Torch/Router Table
* SOIL PULVERIZER vs.Rototiller and Soil Pulverizer
* SOLAR CONCENTRATOR vs. Linear Solar Concentrator
* WIND TURBINE vs. 50 kW Wind Turbine -- ''Proposal: Do not put technical specs into machine names''
* ALUMINUM EXTRACTOR vs. Aluminium Extractor from Clay
* CHIPPER + HAMMERMILL vs. Chipper/Hammermill
* ELECTRIC MOTOR + GENERATOR vs. Electric Motor/Generator
* ''NICKEL IRON BATTERIES is consistent, but why a plural? -- Proposal: Use singular everywhere''
* Why do some machines have "Open Source" or "machine" in their names? Aren't all machines supposed to be open source? Can we just strip that?
* The reference document should use MixedCase to make the correct spelling visible (e.g. MicroHouse). ''Who can edit that document?''
