A long term existence was not given consideration at the time of the naming of the "Arduino IDE 2.0" category. The name has already been made outdated by the release of Arduino IDE 2.1.0.

The new name follows the established convention of dropping the "Arduino" of the software (and hardware) product name from the category name where that is implicit (e.g., "Web Editor", "IoT Cloud", "PLC IDE").

Impact on Links

The name change will not break any links.

Links to Category and Subcategory Pages

Although the forum software adds a cosmetic text "slug" to the category page URL, the only technically significant part of the URL is the ID (e.g., 93). Even though the "slug" text will be changed as part of the renaming, the previous links will still lead to the category page as always.

Links to Topics and Posts

Topic and post URLs are not category dependent so there is no impact on links to any topics or posts under the renamed category.

Discussion

In addition to formal reviews here, a forum topic is available for general discussion on the proposal:
