As "Plumhead" is a stupid name, cotto proposed to rename to "Pharrot".
"Pharrot" is definitly nicer than "Plumhead", but maybe too close to
Parrot. Furthermore it changes
the 'P' sound that is common to PHP and Parrot to an 'F' sound.
The last time "Pharrot"' was used as a project name, it was renamed to
"Pint".

So I'm still open for an alternative. If no better suggestion turns up,
I'll rename to 'Pharrot' after
the June release.
Off the top of my head, I think "Pharrot" isn't a bad choice. Maybe
written as "Pherrot?" As an alternative, maybe "Phoebe" or "PHoePe?" ;-)
