I don't like either. But that's probably because I associate "hyper" with children toys and exaggerated newspaper articles.

How about "snakepit" or something related to snake charming? Would imho be a better fit for the Cobra programming language.

I picked HyperStack because of the similarity to HyperCard: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperCard

"Hyper" is there as in:
-- hypertext
-- Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
-- the common definition of the word: over; beyond; above... and even the dictionary lists "related to hypertext" as the 2nd definition

It does not invoke children's toys or exaggerated articles in my mind. Does it for other readers?

"Snakepit" does not sound very inviting.

The exaggerated form for news is from "hype" (informal/slang for hyperbole). Sort of true since that's the only way to sell news these days--everything has a crazy headline. I don't get the children toys connection, but now I'm curious .

I think snakepit gives the impression that if you use it you'll get bitten, which is more appropriate for another web language/framework that will remain nameless lol.

Hi! I was introducing myself to Cobra and stumbled on this discussion. A lightweight web framework using Cobra would be very interesing, so a big +1 for the project itself About the name - HyperMint works for me - but if I can just throw in an idea a guest here - I both like the one word names + snake related. So what bout Naja? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naja
Kind regards
Jonas

I see the idea, but have to admit that I've grown attached to HyperMint. Of course, there will be other projects in the future that could benefit from such a name as "Naja".
