Cheese Shop -> BSOL?

I like cheeseshop just fine, but have been a Monty Python fan since
they appeared on the CBC in, I think, 1969. I'm one of those people who
is always surprised when a MP bon mot is greeted with confusion and the
suspicion that I have finally lost my mind altogether. So...

If we are moving to the snake motif (which probably would be better
marketing):

"Pythons lay eggs which they arrange in a pile. They coil around the
pile until all eggs have hatched. Since pythons cannot regulate their
internal body temperature, they cannot incubate their eggs per se;
instead, they raise the temperature of their eggs by small movements of
their body-essentially, they "shiver". This is one of only a few
documented cases of parental behaviour in snakes."
--Wikipedia article "python"

Pythons build no nests. Their eggs are found in coils. coil.python.org
?

Tadpoles ( http://python.org/images/python-logo.gif ) are immature
frogs. If we keep the logo, we can change the name of the language to
"frog". Then the eggs would be found in lilypad.frog.org . I personally
do not like this choice but it would have the virtue of consistency.
(Did I mention that I don't like the logo?)
