Name of future PyPI packages

[lsoucasse]

Proteus, janus or mors are already names for other PyPI packages. We need to think of a name extension that links to the group or the field of planetary modelling, for instance proteus-kapteyn or proteus-formingworlds.

Thanks, I do think that fwl- ultimately makes sense and is economical. This gives us in the future the option to have less headache with naming choice even for more common names or acronyms. So fwl-proteus, fwl-janus, fwl-mors and so on.

[timlichtenberg]

Ah, and I think it should be fwl, as fw seems inadvisable as an acronym. 🙃

I agree that the fwl- prefix makes sense. Can we claim these names now, without configuring the PyPi projects beyond that?

[lsoucasse]

I am afraid we cannot reserve the names unless we upload now empty dump ones we complete later. But it seems unlikely that someone will create a fwl-proteus package?

[lsoucasse]

We agreed on the naming so I just close this issue.
