Ouch, punch taken.. There's a difference here, however. 'Lex' is an academin slang word for which a common language alternative exists, 'law', while 'widget' is the only name for the thing it represents. Debian-law is not an optimal name either, though. It feels like the package contains The Debian Law that every user must follow. (And makes Debian-policy sound like it's a project for making Debian suitable for the police.. :]) Don't mind us detailists, the project is an ambitious and admirable one. You have the right to name it however you like - and if it sounds good to a member of its intended audience, it's probably good. =) - Jarno
