Name collision with emerge, the Gentoo package manager. If this is an early stage of the project, you may think about a more unique name. https://wiki.gentoo.o

- ilyabirman 10y agoThanks. I think it’s fine :-)
- dagenleg 10y agoWell, it's for web-developers. Probably very little overlap with Gentoo users amongst them.
- microcolonel 10y agoI can tell you that there's a lot of overlap.
- pbiggar 10y agoThere may be a lot of web developers among gentoo users, but there are not a lot of gentoo users among web developers.
- rounce 10y agoWhy all the downvotes? Seems like a valid point.
- brudgers 10y agoThere's go.com, a game called 'Go'. Should Google change the name of its programming language? Probably not because there isn't any actual confusion. Not like between the synaptics package manager and the synaptiks touchpad utilities for Synaptics touchpads...and that's not that important because it causes confusion for a just handful of people and only for a brief period of time despite both being present on nearly every Linux system.
