what is it with these re-implementations by different authors pinching the name of the original project?

you want to re-implement a well known project, fine

call it something else






That ship sailed right at the birth of open source. Just look at the number of different reimplementations of coreutils.

No I like the idea of appending "-rs", because it makes it much easier to filter out.
