I always found it rather ironic that this package, which was developed by JuliaComputing, manages to violate two common conventions for package names in the julia ecosystem
1) don't put "julia" in the package name
2) don't use abbreviations in the package name
Of course, JuliaDB is probably older than these conventions, but it's amusing nonetheless.
- boromi 6y agoVery true and confusing
- StefanKarpinski 6y agoIt was originally a working title and then we just never found a name we liked better, but yeah, that is pretty funny.
- elcomet 6y agoIt's not only a Julia package though, is it? If it's a full database engine, it might be usable from other languages. So the name makes sense.
- eigenspace 6y agoIt's 'just' a julia package.
