If you have another package name I am open to hear it. Ideal would be data storage manager, since that's what they are all about, but "dsm" isn't intuitive enough. How about "datastore" ?
The point is that "*dbm" is the standard moniker for the underlying libraries. They are called "ndbm", "gdbm", etc., and people wanting to use them will look for them under that name, not under "datastore" or "dsm" :-)
I know, but that still doesn't make it a good name for *those* modules, IMHO. OTOH, sqlite *is* a dbm, but not in that package. Anyway, don't really think it's a big deal, just thought I'd mention it. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Jan 22 2008)
