Hi Jesse, I think if we rename Hy (and subsequently break the python-* naming convention) we should justify moving Hy perhaps to its own module. I am not overly familiar with Hy, I know that it uses and is compatible with Python libraries (as Hy is mostly just sugar on-top of the Python runtime) but do Hy-specific libraries exist? If so, I think that would make the case for moving Hy to its own module even stronger. Brett Gilio
