Naming? #5

The working title "Source Code Transparency" may be confusing since what we want to hash & publish is not necessarily the original source code but rather the "compiled" web bundle that's distributed. If we go the route of hashing web bundles only, perhaps something like "Web App Transparency" or "Web Bundle Transparency" might be better?

Another (small) factor to consider about the name is that it's tempting to abbreviate Source Code Transparency as SCT, which is confusing given the overlap with Signed Certificate Timestamps in Certificate Transparency :)

Right :) Another option to fix that could be just "Source Transparency (ST)"? ("Code Transparency" would have a similar issue :sweat_smile:)
