The winner is Wichert, with "pyroma". I do like the "stickler" name, and the cheeseshop namespace, but since there is nothing else in that namespace I'll wait with it. It can easily be moved to a "cheeseshop.compliance" or whatever in the future, but that the moment it's "pyroma". I'll check it in somewhere soon, maybe work a bit more on the plane to PyCon and probably mention it in a lightning talk.
