Assuming that I'll get no dissention on this, I'm trying to come up
with a name for the project and, more importantly, the name of the
library that it will emit (i.e., don't want to use a library name
that is already used by some other existing project).
- libtopo: already taken by something in [open] Solaris
- libtopoinfo: kinda long, but would be a nice prefix for all API
symbols ("ti_")
- libtopology: also kinda long
Any other suggestions?
