Glossary: Missing a term for environment, site, ....
I am missing a term for the thing which holds all those nice python libraries.
How to call the container where pip/wheel ... installs the software into?
How to call the one thing which is allowed to provide a sitecustomize.py?
I asked on python-ideas an this project was mentioned. Maybe we can find a matching term together.
Python-Ideas thread:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/python-ideas/XNgEK4lbxt0/SDnuYHAXNQAJ
Up to now I found these terms:
- Project https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/applications/#projects-and-applications
- Application https://caremad.io/2013/07/setup-vs-requirement/
- site https://docs.python.org/3/library/site.html
- complete python environment https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/requirements/
I don't care at all which term gets chosen. My intention is to find an agreement.
What do you think?
