I'd love to use PIL. I'd like it even more if the PIL community was less antagonistic.
Well, either you change the name or I do. I don't see how I can do that without causing an enormous amount of trouble for all existing users of PIL (including ourselves and our paying customers, some of which are using it with pre-1.5 versions of Python). After all, we've used the "Image" prefix since 1995, and this is the first time anyone has reported a nameclash. Suggestions are welcome, but don't expect me to undertake a massive renaming/restructuring effort if that can be avoided. Maybe in 2.0. /F
