Python's style for packages dictates snakecase or snake_case over any variant of CamelCase.

Since this project fits into the scientific computing ethos for Python we could look towards NumPy (package numpy) and have a distinctly cased title vs name? Other options exist:


Proposal 1: Python-style throughout
Title: edgepy
Package Name: edgepy

Proposal 2: NumPy variant
Title: EdgePy
Package Name: edgepy

Proposal 3: What we have now
Title: edgePy
Package Name: edgePy


Please respond with your preference.

I like Proposal 2, but no strong preference.

Same, I like Proposal 2 but I'm open to anything.

I'm partial to Proposal 1

I have no preference; unless the user is too lazy to press the shift key, in which case, proposal 1 works.

I would prefer Proposal 2, as long as we only capitalize in documentation.

I think Proposal 2, to stay as consistent as possible with what's already being used and on people's minds.
