I am a boring fart and I always though that names should be as explicit
as possible.
Am I right to think that all the code will be related to applications
using twisted ?
In that case something like twistedapp (please do not take that name as
the ultimate recommendation) would make more sense.
As well I would saws that the organization should be like
twistedapp.news.lowdown
twistedapp.web.nevow
[...]
So the protocol is obvious from the module name and it is easy to add
more application of the same protocol without any name clash.
At that point it is clear that nevow is a web application, even if the
name itself does not give the information away.
