been thinking about a final name for LRDL when the first release is ready.

i'm going through a lot of names. presently i'm liking BraidsL (for Braids Language).

1) it's quite googleable
2) phonetically it sounds like the german word brezel (which sylvia came up with but is taken)
3) makes choice of logo easy for me
4) suggests coders need weaving skills
5) can reuse .b file extension
6) braids are pretty

but i don't think this is it.

four years ago i started this semantic R&D path which is now coming to a close; i thought "why don't i rename LRDL to the name i picked in the beginning", but, guess what, in the meantime several services named "frameloop" have popped up.

i still think the OO's pointing at each other and themselves in the logo is very clever so ... uh... if i come up with a novel name with two O's in it, i can reuse this.

names that put off techbros are especially welcome.

@lritter how about "looper"
@aeva everything loop-adjacent is gone. it's all diddly-squatted!
@aeva then again, i have used a completely generic term from computing for a language before, why not do it again
@lritter how about "flame roop"
@aeva aeva
@lritter hi :D
