&gt;<i> Guys, let's keep it pronounceable and easy to remember, shall we? It
</I>&gt;<i> will probably wind up in the names of mailing lists and web page and
</I>&gt;<i> such and name that nobody can spell/pronounce correctly is no good.
</I>&gt;<i> Cooker was good from this point of view.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Things like &quot;mathetria&quot; or &quot;hephaestus&quot; are not.
</I>I don't think, most people would have problems pronouncing hephaestus, at 
least not in Europe and America, since in the European languages there is some 
greek background to be found.

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> For me &quot;cooker&quot; was somehow always the person doing the cooking (the
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;cook&quot;), not so much the pot (as in &quot;pressure cooker&quot;). However,
</I>&gt;<i> keeping with the &quot;thing&quot; approach - why not &quot;foundry&quot;, &quot;lab&quot;, or
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;crucible&quot;? Even &quot;pot&quot; would work.
</I>I would advice against &quot;pot&quot;, since &quot;Pott&quot; is at least in German the nickname 
for some drug (don't ask me, which exactly,I don't take drugs).
