our standard also says (going from memory, since you didnt give
explicit url), that while of course, py_xxx is preferred, some things
that are well known as something else, are best named as that thing,
rather than py_thatthing.
So here I'm asking the maintainer (or more regular users of this
framework, if the maintainer isnt a regular user of it) if that naming
makes more sense. Is it reasonable that some random outside user of
the framework, new to csw, is going to expect
[install] webpy
to work?
Given that the thing is homed at "webpy.org", it seems like the answer
would be "yes".
