"DAW Project" is not a good name as that's already used by Bitwig https://github.com/bitwig/dawproject

What name do you suggest ?

To me it sounds like a good name.

  • daw and project are both generic words to describe an OwlPlug feature to extract elements from various audio project formats.
  • dawproject by bitwig is a transient and vendor-agnostic project format

In an alternative/future world where any kind of vendor format can be converted easily into a .dawproject, OwlPlug can only focus on consuming standard dawproject feed.
