After dubious results with a straightforward or literal name, I proclaim a metaphorical one: to build a good YaCHT, you need masts, yards, sails, and cordage. The word is rigging I checked that the term is not taken in the software world (except by programs to plan rigging for real ships; no confusion) and registered the user on github (convertible to an organization). -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
