Folks,
Over the year that Lift has had Can[T] as a replacement for Scala's
Option[T], the name Can has required a lot of explaining.
I've never liked Can as a name; always thinking that the opposite of one
should be a Can't. I'm sure it's my own issue to solve, but
I know David has resigned to keeping 'Can', but wouldn't 'Jar' be an
alternative? That way Empty and Full still make sense...
Initially I thought 'Tin' sounded better but I recognise that term
wouldn't be as universal.
