Thanks everyone who's thrown their ideas into the mix. Here's the list of
potential names for PyPI, drawn from a number of sources, limited to only
those which had "seconds":
- - PyPI
- - Shrubbery
- - MOPP (Ministry of Python Packages)
- - Eggs
- - Eggcrate
- - Pylon
- - PyCAN
- - Vault
Personally, I'd rather not go with eggs or eggcrate, as that's only one of the
formats of binary distribution (even if it might take over the Python binary
distribution world). Pylon is just a little too obscure for me. PyPI is
definitely out, given some feedback about potential misunderstandings ;). A
number of us really don't like anything resembling CPAN. So the list really
is:
- - Shrubbery
- - MOPP (Ministry of Python Packages)
- - Vault
Of those three, I'm tied between the last two. Anyone want to help me? Note
that I'm not interested in new suggestions at this point :)
I've contacted the Vaults of Parnassus people regarding all this to garner
their input.
Richard
