> index is too generic to convey any kind of meaning and can be confused--at > least for > me--with list.index. Sometimes it is better for a name to be specific. But it is specific, thanks to the use of namespaces in Python: it’s distutils2.index/packaging.index. Also take into account that this a module name that will be seen by people writing packaging tools (and thus familiar with “the Python Packages Index”), not end-users which may be Python developers. Hynek: I don’t understand “I also think that the pypi term is overloaded with both meanings”. ---------- versions: +Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14974> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
