My obsessive search for the best naming scheme is over:
Pyramid : TurboPyramid That's perfect. It keeps the Pyramid brand, it respects the fact that TurboGears is the fast way to get started, and the TurboGears community is likely to like it because it retains part of the TurboGears brand, and represents the significant change of underlying components from (CherryPy -> ) Pylons -> Pyramid. It's still TurboGears, but has Pyramid running under the hood. Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
