Anthony was right... web3py has a big naming conflict with web3py (python library for web3).
I am considering renaming it. Not sure I want to start a competition here. For a name to be good I must own the domain and it must not be copyrighted. Not many options.
Just heads up.

It needs to be changed for sure.

I really like gluon (even Microsoft joined this bandwagon)...

So maybe inspiration could come from quantum phisics again. Scrap that... Most cool named subatomic particles are already used (muon)...

How about something relating to python species (sebae). not sure how to pronounce this :) !!

Now that I contributed a tiny bit, in my humble opinion, I wouldn't go 'web' or 'py' rute.

web2py was called "gluon". The name was changed to web2py because somebody threatened me he owned the copyright.

Please do not suggest names names here. If you do, somebody will buy it before me and it is gone.
