Picking a projectName and a projectArtifactId

The first thing that must be done is to pick a *projectName* and a *projectArtifactId*.  These will be used throughout the life time of your project.
\\
\\
The *projectName* is a short acronym that is used to uniquely identify your project.
The *projectArtifactId* is the application context under which your project war file will be deployed to the OC4J server.
\\
\\
Once the *projectName* and *projectArtifactId* have been selected, they should not be changed.
\\
\\
Here are a few examples of what other project have used in the past:

||projectName||projectArtifactId||project description|
|ssb|sfs-ssb|student sponsored billing|
|ogs|ogs|online grade submission|
|onlinereg|onlinereg|online registration|
|iap|iap|individual activities period|
