Also since Mesh is a generic word but DMMesh is built on Sieve should DMMesh be renamed to DMSieve?

I don't like that, because no one will understand what we are talking about. DMMesh makes sense. I might be alright with DMUnstructuredMesh, but that is overkill.

DMMesh is kind of like having a PCPRECONDITIONER

I hear the criticism. I don't hear the alternative.

DMSIEVE, makes perfect sense, like PCSPAI Clearly we need documentation on DM and a flow chart as to possible choices for different types of problems to lead people to the right DM. Barry

What other word do people use for an unstructured mesh?
