So forks with modules added or removed cannot be called Python? Distributions that make parts of the stdlib optional are not forks. The PSF Windows installer makes tcl/tk, tkinter, IDLE, and turtle? modules optional. Distributions that package additional modules with unmodified python x.y are also, to me, not forks. But they are always given other names for the combined package. ActiveState Python, Enthought Python, Anaconda (Python). Separate names for separate distribution allow people to search for particular distributions and discuss questions like "Which distribution is best for purpose A?" I am sure that ActiveState Software Inc. would not be happy if you distributed Python + selected modules and called it 'ActiveState Python' ;-), Some for other distributions. So there needs to be a prefix or a suffix? [prefix] Python Python [suffix]

What is the objective here?
