POCOs, POROs, POGOs, Oh my!
In reading this ServerSide.NET article about Gigaspaces extending itself to "plain C# objects", I realized that Plain Old C-sharp Objects (POCOs) or Plain Old C-Sharp Objects (POCSOs) hadn't passed into .NET vernacular yet.
Far be it from me to stop progress. So unless one of you can show me some prior art (Google search didn't turn up anything obvious), I hearby coin POCOs and POCSOs, for .Netians everywhere.
And while I'm at it, I think I'll swing for the fences and coin Plain Old Ruby Objects (POROs). Take that, Parsons, Mackenzie and Fowler!
I'm tempted to go for a hat-trick and choose a third language. How about POGOs for Groovy?
UPDATE: I've had to cancel the patent applications. Looks like POGOs and POROs have prior art, and POCOs are just PONOs revisited. Clearly I'm just not hep to the language you kids are talkin'.
