Only two functions are changed where it affects the user, both are input methods: odia-itrans and odia-inscript. If by chance any user is not aware of the new name (which I consider highly unlikely), they can learn about it when tab completing. Since both the old and new ones start with an 'O'.

I agree = that this change is correct, but let's not ever delete the old
name "Hindi".=C2=A0 Keeping an old alias does no harm.

Hindi is not an alias, it is an incorrect term.
No one is using Hindi to refer to the Devanagari script, therefore= I think it should not be readded.

The old name has been in use for alm= ost a century, if not more, so we
should not rush to deprecate it.=C2=A0 Perhaps in 30 years.

Until then, let's make sure that both the old name and the new name
are accepted, in any places in which people can input the name of a
script.

I feel like 11 years is enoug= h time.

Only two functions are changed where it af= fects the user, both are input methods: odia-itrans and odia-inscript.
If by chance any user is not aware of the new name (which I consider = highly unlikely), they can learn about it when tab completing.
Si= nce both the old and new ones start with an 'O'.

The old name has been in use for almost a century, if not more, so we
should not rush to deprecate it.=C2=A0 Perhaps in 30 years.

Until then, let's make sure that both the old name and the new name
are accepted, in any places in which people can input the name of a
script.
