Change the name?

jfc was my working title when I started the project a couple of weeks ago. Arguments against it include the following:

1. It’s hard to search for.
2. The acronym happens to coincide with a profane bit of Internet slang.
3. Nobody ever, ever wants to be confused with the Java Foundation Classes.

I still like it. I prefer package names to be reverse domain names owned by the project developers (I get annoyed every time I have to write e.g. import _root_.argonaut._ because of an argonaut subpackage somewhere). io.jfc is unambiguous in that respect and short enough that writing out the fully-qualified name isn’t too much of a burden.

@non’s “circe” is the best alternative candidate I’ve heard so far, but I’m happy to consider others.

Love it, specifically because of (2) above. I’m a fan of edgy names 😃
