+1 on the name change, but it will break a fair amount of code out there (from the emails I've been receiving). Could we leave warn and WARN in as synonyms for now, but only mention warning and WARNING in the documentation?

I think this would be very reasonable; we don't want to break things for people that have been using this package already.
