Who suggested the name Rodin for the software platform for Event-B?
"Another period which brought Jean-Raymond and I into closer collaboration was the “Rodin” project. (An earlier project was called “Matisse” and I suggested using the sculptor’s name to mark that we were going to be solid.) The EU-funded project was led by Newcastle and Sascha Romanovsky was happy for me to have a roving technical brief in this and the subsequent “Deploy” ([10]) projects. In the Rodin project, I took particular interest in Jean-Raymond’s tool building team in ETH. I visited often and was frankly surprised at how effective my “loner” friend was as a project manager: on arrival, I could get an immediate overview of the tool development by looking at the blackboard in their room in Clausiusstrasse. The “Rodin toolset” was crucial to the deserved acceptance of “Event-B”."
