I played with some names, starting from
Custom Actuator Profiles
CuAP (Joe's suggestion)
CAPro (sounds too much like Bass Pro)
CActP (makes me think of cactus)
CustomAPs (highly readable)
Most of our open repo names are on the longer side anyway (e.g., lycan-python) and I don't see much benefit to emphasizing concise here, so I like the last one best: openc2-customaps. If having
it run together is confusing it could be openc2-custom-aps.

CAP is a very well socialized acronym, and I fear distributing an OPenC2 CAP message inside a CAP alert encoded in EDXL to respond to a Physical Emergency caused by a CyberAttack

Hey Dave, I just saw this. One thing that occurs to me is the potential for confusion around the name.
CAP is an OASIS Standard - Common Alerting Protocol (
https://www.oasis-open.org/standards#capv1.2 ). The
CAP standard is widely deployed in emergency communication systems around the globe for all manner of disaster: tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados. floods. For people outside our community, seeing CAP already comes with a lot of meaning to it. (And
in case anybody thinks that the differences are obvious, I just spent 20 minutes yesterday explaining why a potential legal markup project had nothing to do with CAP's sibling EDXL (Emergency Data Exchange Language).
I would like to avoid muddying the meaning of CAP if possible by using a different acronym. Maybe cucp or cacp or capro? I'm sure you all can find a far more elegant solution than
that!
Thanks much,

For convenience, here's a copy of the proposal to create an open repo for Custom Actuator Profiles (openc2-cap). As Joe Brule stated
at this morning's TC meeting session, the window to register objections is open until 10:00pm EDT tonight.
