--- Comment #8 from Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> ---
It's unfortunate you had that misguided discussion without the input of
upstream. I disagree with the conclusion there of WireGuard being merely, "a
piece of software, which just happens to require a kernel module in order to
operate." We rather expect that many different types of software will be formed
from the small basic building block of a WireGuard tunnel.

The name of the tools is wireguard-tools. As soon as WireGuard is upstreamed,
the name of the repo will be wireguard-tools. The tarballs of that software
will be called wireguard-tools-1.0.tar.xz. Extremely common nomenclature for
tools that operate particular network interface types is -tools.

So I urge you to both stick with the naming conventions used by both numerous
upstream kernel networking projects and by the WireGuard project itself.
