I totally support your prerogative to name your packages whatever you
want (within reason). My main thought are about long-term aesthetics.
A hard to defend cause, I admit.

I wouldn't mind that.

If "zc" were to become "zope community", I'd be *totally* for it (but I
don't speak for ZC here, so that may not be cool with others, like say
Jim). We'd either keep using "zc" under the new meaning, or switch to
something else.

I'm sorry. It's off my chest now, so if this (mercifully) peters out
soon, we'll all be better off.
