So Sproutcore 2.0 split into two camps, Ember.js and Amber.js? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, this is confusing.

Instead of going with "amber.js" they went with "ember.js"

sproutcore 2.0 = amber.js = ember.js

They're all the same with the final one being the official new name.

Kind of odd, it was announced as "Amber.js":

I'm wondering if there was some kind of copyright/trademark issue at play here.

Thanks, I missed that. It's interesting that they opted to go against the feedback they received from the HN majority :P

amber.js had a nice feel to it -- ember.js, not so much.
