* Package name : golang-petname Version : 2.5~git20160928-1 Upstream Author : Dustin Kirkland <dustin.kirkl...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/dustinkirkland/golang-petname * License : Apache-2 Programming Lang: Go Description : generate pronouncable, perhaps even memorable, pet names This utility will generate "pet names", consisting of a random combination of an adverb, adjective, and proper name. These are useful for unique hostnames, for instance. The default packaging contains about 2000 names, 1300 adjectives, and 4000 adverbs, yielding nearly 10 billion unique combinations, covering over 32 bits of unique namespace. As such, PetName tries to follow the tenets of Zooko's triangle: names are human meaningful, decentralized, and secure. This package is a dependency of LXD, which we are hoping to get into Debian soon, via the pkg-lxc team. I intend to package this as part of the pkg-go team.
