Tide: Project Name Conflicts

[friktor]

At the moment I already have an existing Rust project called "Rise" -- the GUI library. For the project there is a registered domain rise.rs, and an organization "rise-ui". I would like to avoid any confusion in the future, so let's discuss how would we solve the problem with name conflicts. I did not reserve the project name on crates.io because rise-ui has github webrender dependency, and crates.io does not allow the publication of a project with git dependencies. Though some independent libs like raqm have already been published on crates.io on behalf of the project, with keywords like "rise, rise-ui".

Proofs

• organization on github
• commit when the project was named a rise
• domain ownership confirmation

Hi @friktor, thanks for the heads up about this! I had searched for web frameworks (in any language) and crates named Rise, but looks like that wasn't enough :joy:

I'll work with @yoshuawuyts and the rest of the WG to figure out an alternative and we can transfer ownership of the name on crates.io

@friktor we've renamed the project to tide, as in "the rising _tide_" :tada: -- I've also invited you to be an owner of rise on crates.io. The only inconvenience is that the 0.1.0 version is already taken, but hopefully that's not too much of a problem.

All in all I hope this ends up being an adequate resolution. Thanks for raising this; excited to see what comes out of both rise and tide :sparkles:

@aturon, @yoshuawuyts thank you, the confus was solved and everything is fine. Good luck with the writing of your project. 🤯
