O.K. Then lets not. :-) You can try really hard to get me to care what the
packages get called. It just won't work. Propose a set of names you think
will work. Call them "Monique" and "Heather" and "Ivette" if you like. (That
ought to keep things interesting! :-) What matters is that there be some
general agreement on what features will be there. If we end up in agreement
about general features, maybe we can identify an existing set of utilities
that already cover this and we can live with whatever names they already
have. If it ends up that they've got to be written from the ground up, then
we can argue about the names then. (Get your suggestions in early and maybe
they win by default. :-)

My only concern with any names is that we have some ability to separate out
branches that satisfy different categories of tools. One ought to be able to
have some level of sublibraries under a general library of add-on tools.
Things like "These over here are ADT/Container/Vessel thingies and these
things over here are Math doodads and that stuff over there is a whole bunch
of OS interface thingamajigs." We ought to be able to expand the library to
cover things besides containers. What that may be is TBD for the moment, but
lets not make that difficult.
