I kind of see "skimage" as a practical name to use in code---both for
shorter imports and to avoid the issue with namespace packages.

But for branding, I'm inclined to use the longer "scikit-image" whenever
possible, so I'd be in favor of having skimage.org redirect to
scikit-image.org. It's not that big of a deal, but that's my take.
