[code-quality] Pyflakes forked to Frosted

[timothy crosley]

Hi Ian,

I do plan on maintaining this fork, and I had just subscribed and verified
my email. I'm not sure why it still required moderation - is there a
waiting period? Different subscription modes?

In any case,
Thanks for the helpful feedback! I will implement this conceptual error
codes, as I agree it is more logical and standard.
I am following semantic versioning so it will mean incrementing to new
major version - but it shouldn't be too big of a deal as frosted does not
yet have a large group of users.

Thanks!

Timothy
