I believe that renaming is a good idea.  It would make it clearer what's what.  
 We'll need, of course, to do it when we have a release which breaks backwards 
compatibility.

I actually have no problem at all with the idea of renaming ... in  
fact, for compatibility it might be nice if we could build them so  
that they could be used both as libraries and frameworks at the same  
time, so that cocoa developers could link to them the same way they  
do on macos.  I don't know how to modify makefiles etc to build them  
that way, but it can't really be all that hard.
