Getting prompt "The RDS Protocol" (RDS) is not too helpful, and it is

in kernel, too).

I wonder if option should be named NET_RDS, instead?
RDS has been around for a while now (since 2.6). How will you
rename proposal manage backward compatibility? Why can't you call
your new option CONFIG_RADIO  or similar instead?

Are we going to rename NFS* to NET_NFS* because someone decided
to reuse the NFS acronym? 
And this sounds like a good idea:
-	tristate "The RDS Protocol"
+	tristate "The Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) Protocol"
surn that sounds fine.
