Consider renaming runtime-native #15

Closed seanmonstar closed 5 years ago

seanmonstar commented 5 years ago

As noted in this comment on /r/rust:

Since the native runtime is also not really more native than Tokio, calling it the SimpleRuntime or ReducedRuntime might give a better indication to users about what to expect from it.

I felt similar when I first saw the name. I'd assume "native" to mean something provide by the OS. Perhaps it should be renamed to something else?

Hi, thanks for opening this issue! The naming of our crates is currently not up for consideration. We're in active development, and it's still early days for the project as a whole

We feel comfortable with the naming that we've chosen, even if things might change as we mature as a project we're committed to stick to our choices for the foreseeable future.
