The name "vault" might be ambiguous

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Honestly, I'm not sure about this issue raised by @mgu (I'm naming names here :D), because "this ship has sailed". I'm -1 to removing the name vault by default but I'm absolutely not opposed to having another name in use too, and maybe ok having a mechanism to disable the creation of the vault entrypoint, but only if it's very explicit.

Id go so far as to say this: someone could always register another package on PyPI which would either repackage the same code and change the entrypoint or depend on vault-cli and neutralize the entrypoint. I'm not saying it would be a good idea, though, but I can't keep them from doing this.

In this issue, we can discuss this matter. If everyone else is convinced that vault is a bad name compared to <whatever>, then it's easy to keep both names for 6 months with a deprecation warning, so I'll be following along.

What about vault-cli ? We could have both name work (for an unlimited time).

I agree vault is ambiguous. vault-cli seems fine :)
