I would also suggest taking to heart lessons learned from the Eiffel
libraries. For example, it's much better to have the top of the stack
and the head of the queue both called "Item" than it is to have the top
of the stack called "Top" and the head of the queue called "Queue". Some
of the design decisions (especially naming conventions) made by the
Eiffel folks (B. Meyer, basically) are very good, making it easy to
learn a library.
