3. Name of the lib ==================
Main idea --------- + to use or not to use 'yast' as a part of the name
Pros ---- + established name and community, descendant of Yast + well known and easy to distinguish from others
Cons ---- + not suitable if we target multiple distros + hard to find on google + hard to distinguish the name from yast + has association with 'suse only' + possible problem in the mind, with trademarked work 'yast' + makes impression that it is successor of YaST, but it is actually only extraction of part of YaST ( data processing )
Questions --------- + What are the criteria for the name?
Suggestions for the name ------------------------ + ylib + anything with 'y' letter + liby + libyast
Results ------- + use yast++ name as before in the meantime + change is however expected in the course of further development
After dubious results with a straightforward or literal name, I proclaim a metaphorical one: to build a good YaCHT, you need masts, yards, sails, and cordage. The word is rigging I checked that the term is not taken in the software world (except by programs to plan rigging for real ships; no confusion) and registered the user on github (convertible to an organization). -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
