Another language of the same name

Hi! This is not an issue of the code, but can be a problem in the future in other aspect.
I've been developing a language of exactly the same name as yours. And I just published it at a custom domain about a week ago. This shouldn't be a problem immediately and I'm just informing you of that fact.

Thanks for the heads up. I've had this repository name since 2012, so I'm not going to volunteer to change the name :) I think the target audience of both projects is sufficiently different that hopefully little confusion will arise (assuming my project has anything that even closely resembles an "audience").

I don't think having the same name will become a problem(like trademarks?) and even think that I should avoid those situations, this wouldn't be a problem currently and in the future. I'd like to co-exist with your project ;-) Thank you.
