Hello everyone, I write because I would like to rename the GNU fdisk package. In the version I am preparing, the program is written in Scheme, using Guile. In this release there will be only the fdisk program, but in the future I want to add more. So a more generic name would be appropriate. I discussed this with Richard Stallman, and the volunteers on the ment...@gnu.org list. Since the package is based on GUILE, we consider using the name "Guile Diskutils". We wanted to know what you think of this name.
IMHO the programming language/compiler a utility is written with is an implementation detail that should not manifest itself in the utility's name. In this case, I think "GNU Distutils" would be better.
