Repository naming

[jougs]

This issue is mainly for tracking names of all repositories/packages under the roof of the NEST Initiative. Please feel free to add/fix it in the future, to keep it up to date.

Repository	PyPI package	Python module	Read the Docs	Spack**	Linux PPA
nest-simulator	nest-simulator	nest	nest-simulator	nest	nest-simulator/nest
ode-toolbox	odetoolbox	odetoolbox	ode-toolbox	py-odetoolbox
nestml	nestml	nestml	nestml	py-nestml	python3-nestml
nest-sionlib-reader		nestio
connplotter
nest-desktop*	nest-desktop		nest-desktop
nest-client*	nest-client

* coming soon ** not globally available yet.

I added this to the Installation team, since it's mostly related to user's perception of installation sources, doc locations, package names etc.

Note also https://github.com/nest/nest-docker/pull/71 regarding dockerhub vs. ebrains.eu.

Maybe this table is a good thing to add to the documentation. A) it would point people to related repos/docs/projects, B) new packages being developed would get a hint about naming, C) we would have a central overview to eventually come up with the minimal number of renames for a (hopefully) more consistent scheme.

Another thing would be to add a table for the different packages and deployment channels for NEST specifically. This of course overlaps with the different installation methods, but could provide a super-quick overview for people who know what they want already (the "deployer")…

docker: apt: conda: yum: pip: spack: …
