haskell-ide repository name

At the moment the repository/project is called haskell-ide This leads to the impression that it is an IDE. It is actually a backend/server to provide services for an IDE We are considering changing the name. The options are haskides / ghc-ide-daemon / ghc-ide-service / ghc-ide-engine Please cast your vote at http://strawpoll.me/5842105 Thanks Alan

ghc-service. Reasoning: If I understand correctly, this package provides ghc as a service to other processes. I expect that this service could be useful for non-IDEs. For example, I guess a hs-to-html tool could use this to hyperlink identifiers to their binding sites, but such a tool is not an IDE. Tillmann

+1 Or you could expand it out a bit and get GHC-as-a-Service, or GaaS ;-) Is this envisaged to be just a daemon/service, or also a library that can be used (e.g. a nicer abstraction over trying to use GHC's internals to parse Haskell code, etc.)?
