Personally, I *always* read these names backwards - from the POV of the caller. So when I see "add_send_fifo", I then expect to be able to send stuff on the returned FIFO (i.e., I get a writer back). But that's not how it works.
I may be alone in this - I've had similar problems in the past with how people name pipes, for example - but I thought I'd raise it while there's still a possibility that it's not just me and the names can be changed.
Yeah, those names are bugging me too. I'm stewing over possible alternatives. It's the one piece of the PEP that I want to address before I re-post to the list. -eric
