Rename the project

See original GitHub issue

Right now, this project is called “GMT/Python”. But that’s not a valid package name so we import gmt. But we can’t call our repository, PyPI and conda packages gmt so they’ll have to be gmt-python. This is kind of crazy. Plus, import gmt confuses a lot of beginners.

Clearly we need a new name.

Both pygmt and gmtpy have been used before but they were never registered on PyPI so we can still use those names. I don’t really like those two options much but they are certainly better than what we have right now.

Are there any other suggestions?

The bot is not working for some reason. So let’s not go with a full democracy. Instead, I propose using pygmt. Please add a reaction to this comment with either 👍 or 👎 (click on the + 😃 button).

I’m leaning towards pygmt. Can I get a 👍 or 👎 on that?
