@rem seems a lot like polymer and how they co opted web components. so i'm leary. what was wrong with adaptive? been around much longer.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
I was there for the whole Web Components effort; Polymer didn't co-opt, it led. Revisionist history is a dangerous thing.

and thru leading some devs never knew the difference. certainly not revisionist.

Absolutely revisionist. If you would prefer nobody lead, you'll find yourself exactly where you started -- lots of that about, sadly.

And just so we're on the same page: I co-led the team that developed Web Components inside of Chrome and I helped hire the Polymers.

im aware of who you are. adaptive was coined years prior to pwa. it led the way. not good enough?

If it were, we wouldn't have needed a new name. That's the real bugger about branding: it's not about correctness, it's about the "hook".

...and _that_ is about audience. "Adaptive" didn't hook with business decision makers in a way that opened doors. That's happening now.

If you'll allow, I'd be happy to recount (some of) the history.
