from the above
"Here is how it works. The library is given a name that describes the 
contents of the library. Cryptic abbreviations are strongly discouraged. 
Following the practice of the C++ Standard Library, names are usually 
singular rather than plural. For example, a library dealing with file 
systems might chose the name "filesystem", but not "filesystems", "fs" or 
"nicecode".

Hmmmm - I either never saw this or had forgotten about it.  How is it we 
have names
like kara, qi, phoenix, fusion, gil, spirit, wave and xpressive ?
