thanks for the detailed clarification on the events surrounding the
package and the prompt response!

I would be happy to go with either option (personally leaning towards
option 2 as well), and basically rely on your expertise - the upstream
string-jellyfish author has explicitely mentioned that he has no strong
opinion on the Debian package name and I don't have either.

With this in mind, I'm wondering if this would be a good time to rename
this ITP and the RFS (and the mentors package, etc) to the hopefully
final Debian package name ("python-jellyfishstr"?)?

Best regards,
