That's a great explanation of what everything does.
You should consider putting it in a wiki.

This is why you can get a little explanation beside
the acronym
Do you prefer
Moose or SotwareAnalysisPlatform
Glamour or BrowserFlowFramework
Pier or SeasideAppllicationCMS
Seaside or dynamicWebFramework
Citizen or the fuckingLibToParseBibUglyEntries....
Mondrian or theDrawingAPIToOnlyDrawBoxesAndArrows
I prefer the first. So let us be a bit clever. Have nice name and
explanation.
look at VW they have VisualWorks Web Server.... I proposed them to
call it Sioux long time ago (because of blackfoot (smart guys),
Apache, ....).

A name that is not an explanation makes it hard for the user to
know what the thing is or does. I have many problems with the
Moose / Pharo / Squeak / ... community in this respect: I am sure
there are a lot of cool tools and technolgies out there, and I see
names flying around but I have no idea what they are.
Apache gets away with it because it is world famous. Once your tool
is world famous the name does not matter anymore.
OK name your stuff how you want but in that case the community
should also put a glossary online so that people like me can find
their way.

a name is not an explanation.
Ava: an XML parser
So for me I repeat is XML support is a bad name.
Look at Comanche, Apache
why apache is not called HTTPServer?
