It should be a word that the average user would recognise, and hopefully be able to intuit some sense of what it does. How about "Parcel"? Like "Packet" and "Message" it provides a sense of what it is doing. The metaphor extends to sending and receiving parcels, wrapping and unwrapping them, and so on. On a more trivial note, the first three letters make it a prime candidate for a corny acronym: PARrot Communication Event Layer PARrot Container for Event Lobbing PARrot Commissioner for Event Liaison A The information contained in this e-mail message is privileged and/or confidential and is intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above.
