"good" seems a bit prejudicial :)  I think django-linaro-pagination is
OK here: it expresses that it's a fork of django-pagination that's being
driven forward by linaro.  Also I can't think of anything better.

Hmm.  django-authenticated-apis?  I don't like the word 'secure' :) but
I think we could support json-rpc easily enough, and probably should.  I
don't know what you mean by ajax -- as users of linaro-django-xmlrpc
will raise xmlrpclib.Faults, we really need a protocol that can has such
an idea.

I don't know the project, but from your description both these names
sound ok.

So this project contains data to be used with what is now linaro-json?
Certainly a name including "lava" makes sense.  "lava-bundle-tools"?  I
guess it is dashboard specific to some extent, but I don't see us
introducing another bundle concept in LAVA.
