Not sure about that if it was explained at release time.

Envolution is the CMS...Encompass is the Theme Engine for Envolution.

Just as PostNuke .64 was Mutant, and .70-.714 was Rogue I propse the
Envolution version 1.0 be named "Resolve".

Nothing is loosing it's branding at all. I think you misunderstood what
I meant by a "release name".

We won't have the problem they have with "Phoenix" simply because we are
not naming an already named release a second time. They simply goofed up
when they re-named the "adam_baum" release "Phoenix".....

This isn't about the theme engine or changing any branding...it's simply
giving the Envolution Version 1.0 running Encompass a release name of
"Resolve".
