New package named "itools" for Islamic blah blah
If you saw a package named "ctools" containing Christian-themed
utilities, would you wish that the author had selected a less
generic name? A new package named "itools" has appeared in Sid.
"itools-islam" would be a better package name.
"islam-tools" would be a fairer name in the spirit of cooperation.
I would truly hope that a program named "ical" would help me work with
the iCal internet standard, not calculate Islamic dates.
It's a minor annoyance, but it sure smacks of someone landgrabbing
a generic name (cough openstep cough).
Flame on!
