Hi,
Well, tor-* was a proposal to disambiguate a short name. I don't particularly care what the prefix would be.
The suggestion was also to help users by adding tor-. A package called "Simple Bandwidth Scanner" may easily be confused with a speed test application.
The name is not very descriptive, adding tor- makes it more descriptive.
It doesn't need to be tor- specifically though. It could equally be onion- or or-. Something that makes it clear that this tool is not for bandwidth measurement in general.
Thanks, Iain.
