Rename repository

[jvdzwaan]

The empty nlesc Python project could have a better name.

Ideas:

• nlesc-python

Suggestions are welcome!

[bouweandela]

how about this?

• new-python-package
• skeleton-python-package
• python-package-template

[jvdzwaan]

I really would like to include a reference to the eScience Center in the name (so probably include 'nlesc'), @lodekulik do you have suggestions?

[lodekulik]

Hey @jvdzwaan - I am not familiair with how to use GitHub, but shouldnt our packages all be in the nlesc organization and as such already have a reference to the eScience Center?

[benvanwerkhoven]

I agree that when the repository is under the NLeSC organization on github that is probably enough reference to the eScience center. At the moment I can't transfer the repository because I'm not allowed to create repos under the NLeSC organization. But when we have somehow done that, I think the name should indeed reflect that it's about creating a new python project/package.

[bouweandela]

Since we're trying to make the guide useful for all scientific software developers in the Netherlands (instead of NLeSC internal) and this package implements what we recommend in the guide, it would be good if we could avoid making this package too NLeSC specific.

[jvdzwaan]

It is exactly the intention to make it as non-nlesc-specific (and as useful for others) as possible. I would like to have the name nlesc attached, because it says something about quality (we help scientists to make high quality software) and helps the center to be recognized as having impact.

I also think having the repository in the nlesc organization is sufficient to achieve these goals.
