Thanks.

I am not particularly enthusiastic about the term myself, personally. I
think we need some word to fill that role (the one that "Py" fills for
Python) but please feel free to suggest something else. It doesn't have
to be a full word - "Py" isn't. "Twi"? (Quick, someone come up with a
home lighting control project that uses twisted so we can have
"TwiLight".)
