In search of a better name for Markup
Many people have commented that “Markup” is a bad name for a project, mainly because it's very difficult to search for using Google et al.
This page should serve to collect the various name suggestions.
“pyMarkup”
Suggested by Christian Boos here:
pyMarkup?
Pretty standard for a Python library to have a "py" prefix, and you don't really give up the Markup name. Also, would be pretty straightforward to top google results for it (54 hits so far...).
Response by Christopher Lenz:
I'm not a fan of such prefixed names (WinFoo, KFoo, GFoo, iFoo, etc). IMHO those fall in the "cheesy" category ;-) Exceptions are bindings or Python versions of some product, but otherwise I think it's rather ugly.
“Markhor”
See this post by Matt Good to the mailing list:
In relation to the "Goat" suggestion Chris mentioned on IRC "Markhor" which is a type of goat. Incidentally the name comes from the Persian word for "snake eater", so it has a sort-of tie-in to Python. Though as Christian later that O'Reilly is using wild goats on its covers for Ruby on Rails-related books: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/rubyrails/
In this context, “Goat” was proposed on the thread by Ethan Fremen (“what happens to a kid when it grows up :)“.)
Well, I was actually refering to Ruby in a Nutshell, but it appears it's the same goat ;)... -- Christian
“Upmark”
"upmark" - Suggested by David Fraser
